June 4, 1999- Sirs: The following text was located
on a site written or
placed by you or under your control:
"DOM is located on Karitane Island and now
includes the Taongi Atoll in
the Northern Atolls of the Marshall Islands in
the South Pacific 1000
miles south of Tahiti. However, the Marshall Islands
government has
condemned the "fraudulent assertions"
of two organizations, namely the
DOM and sister nation, the Kingdom of EnenKio
(the Marshallese name for
Wake Island), claiming to represent the mid-Pacific
nation amid an
alleged investment scam according to an article
in Agence France-
Presse. The Marshall Islands foreign ministry
has issued warnings to
countries against acknowledging any fraudulent
claims made by
representatives of either nation."
"A Honolulu-based attorney created the "Kingdom
of EnenKio" in the early
1990s. It was based on a power of attorney agreement
with Marshall
Islands paramount chief Mursel Hermios, which
granted the attorney broad
powers to act on his behalf. The Marshall Islands
High Court has ruled
the agreement invalid and ordered it nullified,
which the "kingdom" has
disputed." http://www.goldhaven.com/issue4/Two.htm
(disconnected as of
2/1/00)
The purpose of this letter is lodge a formal request
for correction of
false and misleading statements made by the author
regarding the Kingdom
of EnenKio. While I am pleased to find you have
apparently taken a
serious interest in the Kingdom of EnenKio, I
am aghast at how
distorted, erroneous and misleading the article
is. As a consequence of
my service to His Majesty King Remios and the
people of EnenKio, I am
obligated to respond to incidents such as this.
I will respectfully
offer the following line by line correction. For
your convenience, your
text will be set off (with "**") in
color:
**DOM is located on Karitane Island and now includes
the Taongi Atoll in
the Northern Atolls of the Marshall Islands in
the South Pacific 1000
miles south of Tahiti.**
(Comment: The construction of this statement implies
the Marshall
Islands are in the South Pacific Ocean 1000 miles
south of Tahiti, in
which case a reader may be misled.)
Correction: DOM is located on Karitane Island
in the South Pacific, 1000
miles south of Tahiti, and now includes Taongi
Atoll in the Northern
Atolls of the Marshall Islands in the North Pacific.
**However, the Marshall Islands government has
condemned the "fraudulent
assertions" of two organizations, ...**
(Comment: Just because the RMI government "...has
condemned the
'fraudulent assertions' ...of ...EnenKio...",
does that make it true?
Why would you want to quote anything from a government
that has been
internationally criticized [and documented] time
and again for fraud,
abuse of human rights, outright theft and is in
default on almost every
financial obligation it has ever made? What purpose
do you propose to
serve by attacking a concerned group of dedicated
people fighting for
the very lives of Marshallese natives who have
been overrun by foreign
invaders, bathed in radiation from nuclear fallout
and abused by their
own corrupt government?)
**...namely the DOM and sister nation, the Kingdom
of EnenKio (the
Marshallese name for Wake Island),...**
(Comment: Nothing could be further from the truth.
we cannot speak for
DOM, but as for the Kingdom, we don't even know
what being a "sister
nation" means and for you to make this categorically
false statement is
not only a blatant sign of ignorance of the state
of EnenKio, it is a
deceptive intrusion upon the sovereign, His Majesty
King Remios, the
sovereign of EnenKio and Eneen-Kio Atoll, and
an inexplicable and
irresponsible abuse of journalism. Doesn't anybody
check sources
anymore?)
Correction: The Kingdom of EnenKio is an independent
sovereign state and
the same could be said for DOM.
**...claiming to represent the mid-Pacific nation
amid an alleged
investment scam according to an article in Agence
France- Presse.**
(Comment: The government of the Kingdom of EnenKio
represents the people
of EnenKio, who are forced to live in exile from
Eneen-Kio Atoll, lands
and seas that played a significant role in Marshallese
culture for
perhaps 2000 years. Furthermore, "...an article
in Agence France-Presse"
has no merit as it was authored by a source in
the Marshall Islands
government. My preceding comments apply. The Kingdom
of EnenKio is not
now and never has been engaged in an "...investment
scam...". We have
tried for many years to attract qualified investors
and funding sources
for programs that will not only benefit the people
of EnenKio, but also
will positively impact people around the globe.
In fact, we are
currently working with a former NASA Astronaut.
One tool scammers have
in their arsenal is to discredit visionary programs
of legitimate
entities so they can feed on carcasses of the
ignorant. Many journalists
use the same technique to sell their stories on
sensationalism. Doesn't
anybody check sources anymore?)
**The Marshall Islands foreign ministry has issued
warnings to countries
against acknowledging any fraudulent claims made
by representatives of
either nation.**
(Comment: The Kingdom of EnenKio has made no "fraudulent
claims" of
which I am aware, and in my post, I am responsible
for all published
information. I would personally caution any "..countries
against
acknowledging any fraudulent claims made by representatives
of..."
nations, companies or publications if I had credible
proof to that
effect. However, my preceding comments apply as
to credibility of any
RMI ministry source. Furthermore, the RMI has
repeatedly attacked the
credibility of His Majesty King Hermios, who happens
to be the ancestral
sovereign owner under Marshallese custom of over
1/3 of the land in the
Marshall Islands, including recent attempts to
sequester him against his
will. We believe some officials in the RMI are
afraid of what will
happen to them if honesty and integrity returns
to the administration of
lands and programs to assist the people with their
pressing needs and
they no longer have their hands on the till. To
perpetrate their
jaundiced agenda is an irresponsible abuse of
journalism.)
**A Honolulu-based attorney created the "Kingdom
of EnenKio" in the
early 1990s.**
(Comment: Mr. Moore is not an Attorney, though
he was living in Honolulu
in the early 1990s.)
Correction: The Kingdom of EnenKio was established
by decree of the
owner of Eneen-Kio Atoll [a.k.a. Enen-kio, Halcyon,
Disclerta, Wake and
6-8 other names], Iroijlaplap Murjel Hermios,
who then was Paramount
Chief of the Northern Ratak atolls [he passed
away in December 1998] and
was fully recognized by the RMI government. He
declared the sovereign
state of EnenKio in 1994, whereupon the people
chose him as their King
over Eneen-Kio Atoll, ratified the Constitution
and established
government as a limited constitutional monarchy.
**It was based on a power of attorney agreement
with Marshall Islands
paramount chief Mursel (sic) Hermios, which granted
the attorney broad
powers to act on his behalf.**
Correction: The establishment of the Kingdom of
EnenKio was made
possible by Murjel's appointment of Mr. Robert
Moore, the adopted
brother of Hermios, Alab of Taongi Atoll and a
private citizen, to the
post of Minister Plenipotentiary. The document
of appointment was also a
Special Power of Attorney which granted Mr. Moore
very specific
instructions to do whatever was possible to expel
the United States from
Eneen-Kio Atoll and establish an independent state
on Hermios' and the
people's behalf.
**The Marshall Islands High Court has ruled the
agreement invalid and
ordered it nullified, which the "kingdom"
has disputed.**
(Comment: Since when is a Special Power of Attorney
an "agreement"? The
Marshall Islands High Court has no record or knowledge
of the Special
Power of Attorney, except as has been publicized
by the Kingdom of
EnenKio, and certainly exercises no jurisdiction
over Eneen-Kio Atoll,
which lies over 100 miles north of lawful RMI
boundaries. The RMI has no
political or territorial jurisdiction over the
islands and seas of
Eneen-Kio Atoll because the atoll, by any name
you choose, was not
incorporated into the RMI when it formed its government
in 1979, nor was
it subsequently incorporated by any act, law,
mandate or otherwise of
any present or former Iroijlaplap or Monarch of
Eneen-Kio and any
statement to the contrary is false, fraudulent
and irresponsible.)
Finally, I suggest you, as a journalist or publisher,
do a little more
research, not only into establishment and development
of the Kingdom of
EnenKio, but into the prehistoric history and
more recent U.S. invasion
of Eneen-Kio Atoll, properly named by 'Marshallese'
centuries before
arrival of colonial western powers and missionaries.
Then I invite you
to our Embassy in Honolulu to review the public
files and documents
mentioned above, all of which exist in hard copy
(not in 'cyberspace')
and most of which are referenced or published
at our official web site.
Be sure to view the documents at our Resource
Center which show, in many
cases, full-color digitized letters of correspondence
with the 59 or so
states in the world, many of which are first world.
In closing, I would
simply appeal to your presumed sense of morality
and ethics and request
the referenced article be amended or corrected
and , if corrected
elsewhere, that a link be provided to the relevant
paragraph cited above
in the article.

June 3, 1999- Sir: The following report was sent
to me in which the
author mentions the Kingdom of EnenKio (thank
you for spelling 'EnenKio'
correctly. The purpose of this letter below is
to lodge a formal request
for correction of false and misleading statements
made by the author
regarding the Kingdom of EnenKio.
"Fantasy Island" -- "Melchizedek
passport scam reveals how the Internet
can take fraud to new frontiers" By Bertil
Lintner in Bangkok, December
10, 1998: "Determined not to give up, Pedley
moved his fictional nation
once again, this time to Taongi atoll in the Western
Pacific. According
to a Melchizedek press release, posted on its
home page, Taongi was
leased in 1997 under a treaty with representatives
of "the kingdom of
EnenKio," another only-in- cyberspace country,
which in this case claims
the U.S.-held Wake Island. In real life, Taongi
is an uninhabited atoll
in the Marshall Islands."
http://www.feer.com/Restricted/index_corrections.html
(link to article
of December 24, 1998: "Fantasy Island",
disconnected as of 2/1/00)
Response to the author: I am unable to locate
the "Melchizedek press
release" you cited, indicating that "...Taongi
was leased in 1997 under
a treaty with representatives of "the kingdom
of EnenKio,...". Such an
act would be impossible and implausible as EnenKio
has no legal
authority or political jurisdiction over Taongi
Atoll in the Marshall
Islands. Further more, Melchizedek (DOM) is not
so uninformed as to
publicly advertise an illegal act in the midst
of attempting to find a
suitable land base for its people to administer
their form of
government.
The Kingdom of EnenKio did enter into a treaty
with DOM on the 19th day
of September, 1997, but it did not convey a lease
of land. It declared a
state of peace and established diplomatic recognition
between our
governments. However, a prior agreement, signed
in May 1997, which had
nothing to do with the Kingdom of EnenKio, transferred
Mr. Robert
Moore's rights to develop Taongi from Mr. Moore
to DOM. It did not
convey a lease at that time and no such document
is in existence.
This was made possible because Mr. Moore is the
Alab (one class of
landowner) of Taongi and had a legal power of
attorney pertaining to
Taongi Atoll, from the principal landowner, Iroijlaplap
(Paramount
Chief) Murjel Hermios, who was aware of and supported
the transaction.
Consideration, if any, under the agreement was
personally retained by
Mr. Moore, who is also the adopted brother of
Hermios.
Now, please understand, that while Mr. Moore was
acting in the latter
case on his own behalf, and that of the future
use and development of
Taongi, which would have generated an income to
Iroijlaplap Hermios, Mr.
Moore wears another hat as Minister Plenipotentiary
of the Kingdom of
EnenKio. Iroijlaplap Hermios, also wore (he died
in December 10, 1998,
the same date of your article) other hats: one
as First Monarch, King of
the Kingdom of EnenKio and one as owner in allodium
of Eneen-Kio Atoll
(a.k.a. Enen-kio, Halcyon, Disclerta, Wake and
several other names).
For you to state the Kingdom of EnenKio is "...another
only-in-
cyberspace country...", as you did in the
above article, is not only a
completely and categorically false statement,
but it is a blatant sign
of ignorance of the state of EnenKio. And, it
is a blatant deceptive
intrusion upon His Majesty King Hermios, the sovereign
of EnenKio and
Eneen-Kio Atoll, and an inexplicable and irresponsible
abuse of your
journalistic license -- unless, of course, your
statement could be
proved accurate.
I suggest you do a little more research, not only
into the establishment
and development of the Kingdom of EnenKio, but
into the prehistoric
history and more recent U.S. invasion of Eneen-Kio
Atoll, properly named
by 'Marshallese' centuries before arrival of colonial
western powers and
missionaries. Then I invite you to our Embassy
in Honolulu to review the
public files, all of which exist in hard copy
(not 'cyberspace') and
most of which are referenced or published at our
official web address:
Be sure to view the documents at our Resource
Center which show, in many
cases, full-color digitized letters of correspondence
with the 59 or so
states in the world, many of which are first world.
In closing, I would
simply appeal to your presumed sense of morality
and ethics and request
the referenced article be amended or corrected
and that the link be
added to the relevant paragraph cited above in
the article.

June 2, 1999- Sir: The following statement (in
quotes) was copied from
one of your Footnotes to History -D and E (disconnected
as of 12/1/00).
"Enenkio Atoll- In 1898, the United States
annexed Wake Island, in the
Marshall Islands of the western Pacific. After
the Marshalls became a
U.S. Trust Territory, the traditional chiefs of
the area agitated for
recognition that Wake Island was a part of the
Marianas chain, and
pressed their historical claims to the atoll,
called Enenkio locally.
The U.S. government has consistently ignored these
claims. The protests
took a sharper turn after the U.S. Congress in
1993 acknowledged the
illegality a hundred years earlier of the establishment
by Americans of
the Republic of Hawai'i. King Murjel Hermios,
who is paramount chief of
an archipelago in the northern Marshalls, declared
Wake Island's
independence in 1987. The Marshalls recognized
this claim shortly after
the nation gained its independence. In return
for his services as
Minister Plenipotentiary in the United States,
Hermios granted American
businessman Robert Moore land on Taongi Atoll
in the northern Marshalls,
which Moore has declared the Dominion of Melchizedek."
Comment: With all candor, I cannot figure how
such straight forward
facts such as we have presented to the public
and over the Internet
since 1994 could have possibly been construed
into the above referenced
text. While I am pleased to find you have apparently
taken a very
serious interest (unless your site is intended
as some twisted joke,
which I am assuming is not the case) in the history
of the Kingdom of
EnenKio, I am aghast at how distorted, erroneous
and misleading your
summary is. As a consequence of my service to
His Majesty King Remios
and the people of EnenKio, I will respectfully
offer the following line
by line correction. For your convenience, your
text will be set off
(with "**") in color:
**In 1898, the United States annexed Wake Island,
in the Marshall
Islands of the western Pacific.**
Correction: In 1898, the United States invaded
Wake Island, the
northernmost atoll -- actually named Eneen-Kio
centuries before western
explorers arrived -- of the Ratak chain of Marshall
Islands in
Micronesia and the Central North Pacific Ocean.
The Author responds: "Rest assured that I
did not mean to downplay the
role of violence in the American acquisition of
the territory."
**After the Marshalls became a U.S. Trust Territory,
the traditional
chiefs of the area agitated for recognition that
Wake Island was a part
of the Marianas chain, and pressed their historical
claims to the atoll,
called Enenkio locally.**
Correction: Following W.W.II, the Trust Territories
of the Pacific,
which included the Marshall Islands, was placed
under administration of
the United States by the United Nations. While
Eneen-Kio was well
established as one of the Marshalls, the U.S.
only knew it as Wake and,
having lost many U.S. lives there in 1941 at the
hands of Japanese
invaders, kept control of it. In 1993, the Paramount
Chief of the Ratak
atolls pressed his clan's historical and lawful
claim to the 3 islands
of Eneen-Kio Atoll.
The Author responds: "I don't see much conflict
between the two versions
here."
**The U.S. government has consistently ignored
these claims.**
Correction: The U.S. government has consistently
ignored claims from the
Marshall Islands government, which failed to exert
a claim during its
move to independence in 1979, and from the former
traditional
landowners, including Iroijlaplap Murjel Hermios.
The Author responds: "I will note this."
**The protests took a sharper turn after the U.S.
Congress in 1993
acknowledged the illegality a hundred years earlier
of the establishment
by Americans of the Republic of Hawai'i.**
Correction: The Eneen-Kio claims gained some new
momentum after
precedents were set by the U.S. Congress, when
in 1993 they acknowledged
the illegality of the 1893 overthrow of the Monarch
of the Kingdom of
Hawai'i by a group of American businessmen and
U.S. Marines, and in the
following year returned the island of Kaho'olawe
to the Hawaiian People.
**King Murjel Hermios, who is paramount chief
of an archipelago in the
northern Marshalls, declared Wake Island's independence
in 1987.**
Correction: King Murjel Hermios, who was Paramount
Chief until his death
in December 1998, declared the sovereign state
of EnenKio in 1994,
whereupon the people chose him as their King over
Eneen-Kio Atoll,
ratified the Constitution and established government
as a limited
constitutional monarchy.
The Author responds: "I will make the necessary
corrections here."
**The Marshalls recognized this claim shortly
after the nation gained
its independence. In return for his services as
Minister Plenipotentiary
in the United States, Hermios granted American
businessman Robert Moore
land on Taongi Atoll in the northern Marshalls,
which Moore has declared
the Dominion of Melchizedek.**
Correction: After the death of the First Monarch,
his brother Remios
succeeded to the throne as Second Monarch and
rules along with his
brother, Crown Prince Lobadreo, over the Kingdom
of EnenKio today.
To continue the commentary: The parts left out
were either wrong or have
nothing to do with the history of the Kingdom
of EnenKio itself. Since
HM King Remios also succeeded to Iroijlaplap of
the northern Ratak
atolls of the Marshall Islands, he also has responsibilities
over 10
atolls, 2 islands and over 300 atoll islets. But
that is another story,
which has nothing directly to do with the Kingdom
of EnenKio. I have
offered this treatise in hopes that you will find
the time to correct
your site per my suggestions. Please feel free
to contact me or view our
pages at the address above. Thank you in advance
for your attention and
interest in this matter.
The Author responds: "I imagine that you
are asserting here that Moore's
Melchizedek project (which can be located on the
web through the Sources
& Bibliography section of my web page) is
non-existent. Be assured I
will look further into\par this. Thank you again
for your response,
Captain Rydell. I should be posting a revised
version of the page in the
next week or so." (June 7, 1999)

June 1, 1999: News Release
Part One Background:
On May 21, 1999, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
and Trade of the
Republic of the Marshall Islands posted a "press
release" on the
Internet at: http://www.yokwe.net/mboard/newsinfo/thread.cgi?67,0\cf0
(discontinued as of 12/1/00). The author, "Mr.
Joseph Biglar,
Undersecretary", is not known to us, has
not heretofore communicated
with the government of the Kingdom of EnenKio,
nor with its Monarch, His
Majesty King Remios, at any time and has no knowledge
of any policies or
state activities of EnenKio. There is no valid
reason to assume that the
said "press release" is indeed an official
document.
The Republic of the Marshall Islands has perfect
knowledge that
representatives of the Kingdom of EnenKio, headed
by His Majesty King
Remios, on the basis of his proper and lawful
authority, have the right
and obligation to speak in support of the interests
of certain persons,
many of whom happen to be Marshallese nationals
residing in the Marshall
Islands.
Response to so-called "Press Release":
This unprovoked attack upon His Majesty King Remios,
Monarch of the
Kingdom of EnenKio, by the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs and Trade of the
Republic of the Marshall Islands is wholly false.
It is also
unjustifiably inflammatory and amounts to little
more than an
unquestionable confirmation of the predilection
for infringement upon
Marshallese sovereign rights exercised by the
current administration of
the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which has
been confirmed by the
U.S. State Department. (See: Human Rights Report)
This public posting shall serve as constructive
notice to the Marshall
Islands Government that any attempt to interfere
in the business of His
Majesty King Remios, Iroijlaplap of the Northern
Ratak atolls of the
Marshall Islands, or any acts, decisions, mandates,
announcements or
directives thereby, shall be met with definitive
responses equal to the
degrees of contravention.
The RMI is unequivocally cognizant that the Kingdom
of EnenKio:
» » exists as a sovereign
state as defined by the Montevideo
Convention (1933).
» » was conceived as
a separate independent state by its
sovereign,
Iroijlaplap Murjel Hermios, in 1987.
» » was established
by way of a public authority, the
Constitution
of the Kingdom of EnenKio Atoll, ratified in 1994
by its people.
» » has negotiated diplomatic
and trade treaties with many
other
states, including the Dominion of Melchizedek
» » has asserted political
and territorial jurisdiction over
islands
and seas which lie entirely outside and well beyond
the area defined as
- now quoting Mr. Biglar's statement - "RMI
geographical and political
boundaries."
» » exercises authorities
founded upon prehistoric traditional
and
matriarchal ancestral rights and titles bestowed,
under the sacred
heritage of Marshallese customary law (reinforced
by the RMI
Constitution), upon the acknowledged Iroijlaplaps
of the Northern Ratak
atolls, whose authority is certainly not subject
to scrutiny by Ministry
of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Republic of
the Marshall Islands.
» » has not subjugated,
assigned or encumbered any of its
political
jurisdiction within its defined territorial boundaries
of islands and
seas of Eneen-Kio Atoll to the government or people
of the Dominion of
Melchizedek or to any other entity, including
the Republic of the
Marshall Islands.
Mr. Biglar is unequivocally cognizant that the
Republic of the Marshall
Islands:
» » also exists as a
sovereign state, defined by the
Montevideo
Convention (1933).
» » was conceived as
a separate state by (UN) foreign
governments,
which included the United States, China and the
USSR.
» » was also established
under a public authority, the
Constitution
of the Marshall Islands, ratified in 1979 by its
people.
» » has no relations
with EnenKio that allows RMI knowledge of
anything that is not also public information and
no such public
information respecting relations with the Dominion
of Melchizedek has
ever been disseminated to harm the RMI to be condemned
by Mr. Biglar.
» » has no political
or territorial jurisdiction over the
islands
and seas of Eneen-Kio Atoll, which was not incorporated
into the RMI in
1979, nor subsequently incorporated by any act,
law or mandate of any
present or former Iroijlaplap or Monarch thereof
and any statement to
the contrary is fraudulent, as in the instant
matter.
» » exercises authorities
founded upon the RMI Constitution,
which
does not incorporate nor authorize political jurisdiction
over
territorial boundaries that include the islands
or seas of Eneen-Kio
Atoll and any statement to the contrary is fraudulent,
as in the instant
matter.
» » has refused to acknowledge
the leadership of the Kingdom
of
EnenKio in their every attempt to get the RMI
government to mitigate the
suffering of people residing in the Ratak atolls,
under jurisdiction of
Iroijlaplap Hermios, and the RMI has rejected
every suggestion to
coordinate prospective relief efforts through
the said Iroijlaplap
Hermios.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the
Republic of the
Marshall Islands is steadfastly advised that any
unilateral statements
or actions by the administration of the Republic
of the Marshall Islands
which purport, seek or serve to diminish or question
the credibility,
existence or authority of the government of the
Kingdom of EnenKio in
the conduct of its affairs of state, without legitimate
authentication
by a court of competent jurisdiction, are hereafter
to be taken as
deliberate acts of aggression upon the Monarch
of the Kingdom, His
Majesty King Remios, as Head of State, the government
of the Kingdom of
EnenKio and its people, and will be countered
with appropriate
responsive measures.
Furthermore, in light of the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs and Trade of
the Republic of the Marshall Islands announcement
concerning the Kingdom
of EnenKio, your attention is respectfully directed
to the following
statement in the Preamble of the Constitution
of the Marshall Islands,
then you decide for yourself:
"With this Constitution, we affirm our desire
and right to live in peace
and harmony, subscribing to the principles of
democracy, sharing the
aspirations of all other peoples for a free and
peaceful world, and
striving to do all we can to assist in achieving
this goal."
On behalf of His Majesty King Remios, we, administrators
of the Kingdom
of EnenKio, have wholeheartedly agreed to pursue
the same goal for a
free and peaceful world and have made no effort
to the contrary.

News Release, Part Two, June 1, 1999
Part Two Background:
The International Narcotics Control Strategy Report,
1998 (click on
reference # 2 below) released by the Bureau for
International Narcotics
and Law Enforcement Affairs, U.S. Department of
State, Washington DC,
February 1999, states as follows:
"Where Are OFCs Located?
[Paragraph 4] Thus, it is now possible for an
enterprising jurisdiction
anywhere in the world to establish itself as an
emerging OFC. The newest
OFCs, e.g., Niue and the Marshall Islands, are
now sprouting in remote
areas of the world, such as the Pacific. Even
more "remote" are mere
figments of fertile imaginations such as the Dominion
of Malchizedek
(sic) or The Kingdom of Enenkio Atol (sic), both
entirely fraudulent in
intent and practice." [note: OFC = Offshore

Response:
This unprovoked attack upon His Majesty King Remios,
Monarch of the
Kingdom of EnenKio, the sovereign state of EnenKio
and its noble
citizenry by the U.S. Department of State is a
reprehensible
categorically false challenge of the sovereignty
of the Kingdom of
EnenKio. It is also unjustifiably inflammatory
and amounts to an
unqualified felonious defamation of the international
reputation of His
Majesty King Remios, the government of the Kingdom
of EnenKio and organs
thereof.
The unmitigated audacity and arrogance of the
United States to attempt
to link the Kingdom of EnenKio with International
Crime, narcotics
trafficking, money laundering, tax evasion, international
drug cartels,
terrorists, bank fraud or any other sort of criminal
activity, without
even one microscopic fragment of substantive evidence
to corroborate
such deliberately nefarious statements is reprehensible
in the least.
This public posting shall serve as constructive
notice to the United
States Government that any attempt to interfere
in the business of His
Majesty King Remios, Iroijlaplap of the Northern
Ratak atolls of the
Marshall Islands, or any acts, decisions, mandates,
announcements or
directives thereby, shall be met with definitive
responses equal to the
degrees of contravention.
Furthermore, this matter will not be resolved
until the President of the
United States issues a formal apology to His Majesty
King Remios, along
with the government of the Kingdom of EnenKio,
and the Congress of the
United States initiates a thorough investigation
into the abuses of
power, subversion of natural rights and illegal
occupation by the United
States of the islands and seas of Eneen-Kio Atoll.
Congressional
representatives to Hawaii, the nearest State of
the United States to
Eneen-Kio Atoll, and those of other states, have
repeatedly been advised
of the foregoing atrocities and conditions and
have failed to respond in
kind. The United States is obligated as the self-assured
trustee of
Pacific Island States in Micronesia to respond
to the charges of "ethnic
cleansing" and her responsibility to EnenKio
is no less.

Majesty Murjel Hermios,
First Monarch of the Kingdom of EnenKio, Iroijlaplap

March 1999 -- Comments to readers from the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs:
Subject: A "State of War" Declaration
The Kingdom of EnenKio recognizes that an unresolved
conflict of
interests exists between it and the United States
Government. The
United States government, admittedly at a time
of colonial expansionism,
appears to have violated the laws of nature and
The Law of Nations in
"taking possession" of sovereign property
in the Northern Ratak State,
which then had formal treaties with the Republic
of Germany. The
explicitly immoral and illegal 1899 seizure of
Marshallese homeland by
agents of the federal government was the start
of present day sentiments
of deprivation of rights and dispossession of
lands felt by many
Marshallese. Because of continual
neglect misrepresentation and
outright exploitation, these scars on Marshallese
society have not
healed.
Thus a current state of adversity exists.Â
Following four years of
attempts to cause the United States to evaluate
the plight of the
Marshallese of the Northern Ratak imposed by its
actions with respect to
Wake Island, the government of EnenKio, on behalf
of the Marshallese
King, issued the "'State of War', a Declaration"
and broadcast it to the
world. The people were displaced
from their native lands and kept
as
virtual prisoners of war, not by virtue of being
kept in, but by virtue
of being kept out. It was through
this pragmatic initiative that
the
Kingdom of EnenKio solicited support to heal the
wounds inflicted upon
the people and peacefully restore what was wrongfully
taken from the
ancestors of the Ratak Paramount Chief, King Murjel
Hermios.
In retrospect, the Declaration has had little
visible effect.Â
While a
state of adversity does exist, the hope for American
recognition of past
wrongs remains on the horizon. The
Kingdom of EnenKio does not
condone nor tacitly sanction any act of belligerence
by any person or
agent of any government. Such unnecessary
means would diminish any
hope of mutual reconciliation and could diplomatically
undermine the
cause of peace within the family of nations.Â
The Kingdom of
EnenKio
also does not wish to see any further damage to
the remnant happiness of
the Marshallese people.
While the Kingdom of EnenKio continues to seek
accountability of the
U.S. Congress to obey its own laws, to conform
to the UN Charter,
conventions of the United Nations relating to
self-determination,
preservation of human rights and protection against
human rights abuses,
it believes accountability requires the U.S. to
meet the pleas of the
people oppressed by the conditions of this adversity.Â
The refusal
of
the U.S. to meet its obligations, even to the
extent that a simple
discussion for resolution is held over the subject
matter with
representatives for the affected parties, perpetuates
the adversity,
turns a cold shoulder to the facts of abuse and
ignores the rights of
the Marshallese people to whom the U.S. pledged
in good faith to execute
the 1947 mandates of the United Nations and its
members. Your
understanding is appreciated.Â

December 19, 1998: News Release
Subject: Death of the Monarch of the Kingdom of
EnenKio
The government has declared a period of national
mourning on the
occasion of the death of the first Monarch of
the Kingdom of EnenKio,
His Majesty King Murjel Hermios. Embassies, missions
and regional posts
are instructed to display the flag at half-staff
until 11 January 1999.
Memorial services, held in the Marshall Islands
where HM Hermios made
his home, mark the passing of one of the most
unpretentious of
traditional Marshallese leaders. His remains will
be interred in a
family plot on one of the outer islands he so
loved.
Irooj Hermios was Head of State of the Kingdom
of EnenKio, revered as
Monarch over the islands of Eneen-Kio Atoll, esteemed
as Iroijlaplap and
High Chief of the Northern atolls of the Ratak
Archipelago, beloved as
our brother and trusted as a friend. His successor
as Iroijlaplap is to
be formally named by a Council of traditional
leaders. Selection of a
successor to the Monarchy of the Kingdom is in
process and will be
announced at a later date. In the interim, a Reagent
will serve as Head
of State.
HM Hermios followed a long line of matriarchal
predecessors as
Iroijlaplap. Aboriginal inhabitants of the islands
today known as the
Marshalls, part of Micronesia in the North Pacific
Ocean and first
discovered by European seamen in the 16th Century,
were found to have a
well-developed societal structure. Many nations
have since, mostly by
force, prevailed over the Marshall Islands, imposed
unaccustomed western
ideals upon her populace and ravaged her islands
of resources and
beauty. Today this area is commonly known as Wake
atoll and is illegally
occupied by the federal government of the United
States.
In one of the most courageous acts in recent times,
Irooj Hermios
clearly understood he had a mission to succeed
where his predecessors in
interest had failed to secure the islands, seas
and lagoon of Eneen-Kio
Atoll for his beloved people. (The account of
his acts to establish the
Kingdom of EnenKio as an island state, independent
of the governments of
the Marshalls and the United States, may be researched
at the official
Internet site.
On behalf of the government of the Kingdom of
EnenKio, we are extremely
grateful for his dedication to the people of the
Marshall Islands and
are personally moved by the memory of a man who
will surely one day be
recognized as having a legacy of furthering the
interests of his people
by the setting of processes in motion to re-establish
Marshallese
domination over Eneen-Kio Atoll. We are saddened
that our brother has
passed without his seeing the fruits of his devotion
to Marshallese
ancestry and traditions. In lieu of flowers, mourners
may contact the
mission at the address above or call (808) 373-9254.
Sincerest best
wishes for the holiday season and the coming New
Year are extended to
all in Peace.

July 14, 1998: Communiqué to Correspondents
Recent articles defaming the government of the
Kingdom of EnenKio have
been maliciously published under the guise of
a Marshall Islands
government warning against "fraudulent claims".
We have once more
admonished the writer of the articles in the Marshall
Islands for
disregarding indisputable facts which clearly
discredit his biased
report. We urge you to disregard all discourse
in the media regarding
the Kingdom of EnenKio which are not validated.
To that end, you are
cordially invited to contact this office with
your specific questions or
concerns. For your advice, the following statement
was issued by the
State Secretary of the Kingdom in reply:
The Kingdom has never knowingly made any fraudulent
claim whatsoever. No
claim we have made has ever been shown to be fraudulent,
nor has any
claim ever come under or faltered from a challenge
by anyone anywhere in
the world. We are working vigorously to regain
occupation of the
ancestral property of HM King Hermios, to resolve
the virtual "state of
war" that exists with the United States government
and to be accepted as
an honorable state among nations.
The Kingdom does not pretend to be (quoting from
the report) "asserting
authority over land ...within the geographical
and political
boundaries..." of the RMI. We are however
striving to expel the armed
imperialistic invasion forces of the United States
from the shores of
Eneen-Kio Atoll so natural Marshallese supremacy
can be re-establish
there. As to allegations of fraud and constitutional
violation, no one
has dared to come forward with any such a charge.
We say, let the issue
be played out in the People's venue for the record,
not in a libelous
weekly publication. While we do not wear our brief
history on our
shirtsleeves, our raison d'être is
clearly mandated in the Preamble
to
the Constitution of EnenKio, which can be seen
at our web site:
