RE:    GOV. MSG. NO. 637

 

 

 

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2019

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 637, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of: 

 

State Boxing Commission of Hawaii

 

G.M. No. 637

NANTE MANANGAN,

for a term to expire 06-30-2023,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Nante Manangan for service on the State Boxing Commission of Hawaii.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the reappointment of Nante Manangan from the Hawaii State Boxing Commission and two individuals.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Mr. Manangan's background, experience, and proven leadership on the State Boxing Commission of Hawaii qualify him for reappointment to the Boxing Commission.  Your Committee notes that Mr. Manangan started boxing as a teenager on Molokai in the 1960s and is the Chief Executive Officer of the Southside Boxing Club of Maui, Inc., which he founded in 1996.  Mr. Manangan has been actively involved in the sport of boxing for over twenty-five years, including acting as an event promoter and as a coach in Maui for numerous boxers of different skill and age levels.   Mr. Manangan is also dedicated to serving his community, especially at-risk youth.  Your Committee further finds that Mr. Manangan has been a member of the Boxing Commission since July 2015, and his experience continues to enhance the effectiveness of the Commission.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Mr. Manangan be reappointed to the State Boxing Commission of Hawaii based on his background, knowledge, and commitment to public service.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health,
