Honolulu paper creates help section called Kokua

The Honolulu Star-Bulletin is combining some of its Sunday personal finance coverage with other advice content to create a new section called Kokua, writes editor Frank Bridgewater.

Bridgewater writes, “Got a problem? Not sure whether to buy that annuity? Need help to keep that car going or find a job? Have pet peeves? Want ideas to make life easier, or tips for seniors?

“Look to Kokua, a new section full of suggestions and advice on a wide variety of everyday issues.

“Kokua Line, a popular mainstay of the paper written by June Watanabe, moves from the Hawaii section to head up the new section. The Sunday Wall Street Journal pages, with unmatched coverage of personal finance and consumer issues, leave the Sunday Business section to join Kokua.”
