Takuma Higashionna and Hideki Yoshikawa of the Okinawa Dugong Environmental Assessment Watch Group will be on Oahu this week to report on the status of their struggle to save their coast from the construction of a U.S. Marine airbase. Both men are environmentalists who have been involved with the close-to 5-year sit-in at Henoko in northeastern Okinawa, and also participated in a historic lawsuit that brought the US Department of Defense to court.
