Letter for our President

Dear Mr. President,

    I hope this letter finds you well. The purpose of my writing is to bring a nationwide issue to your attention. This letter does not aim to induce any harm nor pose a negative attitude towards anyone.

    First of all, I would like to express my gratitude for your service. The Philippines' economy has been growing thanks to your efforts.

    Now, with all due respect, I would like to bring to your attention the issue of flooding. Understandably, rain and storms are natural disasters in the Philippines. However, some areas have experienced excessive flooding. There have been cases where the water reached chest level. Furthermore, houses in rural areas are currently facing the problem of flooding inside their homes. I personally experienced this a few years back. Our family had to evacuate during the typhoon because the entirety of our lot was almost flooded to our hips. Many of our possessions were destroyed due to the floodwater.

    One solution for this nationwide issue is the construction of drainage systems along streets and highways. These drainages help reduce the level of floodwater by redirecting it to more suitable areas.

    I have also observed several construction projects that were related to flood control. These projects have been delayed for quite some time. Continuing these projects would be beneficial for the country and serve as a solution to the issue.

Sincerely, 
Abellera, Lance Cody R
