Letters to the Editor

I JUST watched a beautiful fireworks display conducted along Tinian’s Sanhalom Bay.  It was a memorable end to another gorgeous 4th of July.  Thank you to the organizers (and the funding source)! I could not help thinking about the U.S. Marines who were stuck in the mountainous pinnacles north of G…

THE TRUTH of the matter is President Joe Biden had one bad night on the debate stage that drew demands for him to step down and yet when Trump was convicted the first & second time there were no calls for him to step down even when he is still facing 54 more felony charges. Why is Trump being h…

AS June comes to a close, so does Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month. This month has reminded us of the unique challenges men face in maintaining mental wellness and the need to address these issues openly. However, even as this dedicated month wraps up, our awareness and efforts should cont…

AS the Postmaster of Saipan, I am writing to express the unwavering commitment of our postal staff to serving our wonderful community. With the 4th of July approaching, a time when we celebrate our nation’s independence and the freedoms we cherish, it is also a fitting moment to reflect on th…

I WANT to thank “Saipan man” for saying that my advocating for my wife is nothing but rants and complaints, but the truth is at least I faced the person who abducted my wife in U.S. court. See, there is a reason I choose to become a humanitarian U.S. investigator. I want to represent my father’s pe…

IF a state worker, a state lawyer or a state pastor can work with state government or county officials to take your wife then you know it’s an orchestrated government corruption in the making. In Oregon, opioids are a lucrative business for CEO’s but they can also do a lot damage to individua…

IT’S not surprising what shady, crafty and corrupt organizations, corporations, groups or individuals will do to ruin lives for self-interest and greed. The motive is money. While the ruthless, reckless Republicans argue that Trump is right to put children and parents in cages, the dishonest and de…

I JUST want to let you know that there was no battle on the island of Rota during the American invasion of Saipan, Tinian, and Guam. There was no military interest for Rota from both the Japanese and the Americans. This letter is written to correct the message which was posted in front of the state…
