Dear Mr. President of Republic of the Philippines,

I would like to start my letter with all the acknowledgement about your services you have done in you services our country and with high hopes, you will continue rendering that good deeds. as a citizen of Republic of the Philippines and as a responsible Ilocana youth, I have some concerns about our country's future and ongoing current events. 

First is Education. Our school in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur National High School. We have over population because of many students who enrolled especially on the seventh grader, until twelveth grader, and almost we have more or less 8,500 students who study in the said school. Because of these we had lack of classroom facilities like books, buildings, classrooms and equiptments, so we the nineth and tenth graders had the shifting of classes. Ninth graders starts to have their class at 6:00 am until 4:00 pm and for the tenth graders like me, starts their class at 10:30 am until 6:45 pm in the special classes but in regular classes, their classes starts at 12:30 pm until 6:45 pm. As I always see, the problem is the commuters that comes from distant places, adds to their expense and safety to travel at evening. It’s hard for us also not to have enough time for lunch break. Also it’s hard for us to have a straight classes thou it’s tiring and sometimes felt sleepy. It also quite stressing and pressuring because of many assignments and requirements. Second is Corruption due to not enough funds government schools. Third is Limited Healthcare support and supplies in the government. There are some of the scenarios like people who cannot avail supplies and proper benefits of in need in the health care system mainly the government sector. Fourth is Effects of social media to youths. We all know that almost all youths like me had their own gadgets like laptops, iphones, tablets, ipads, and smartphone that they are using in browsing the social media sites. Since “social media” hit the market, popular culture has become a major part of average teenager’s daily life. Fifth is Accessibility and dependence to technology (not use of library and books as reference in studying) Youth spending more time in surfing internet than studying Sixth is Abnormal changes of climate during school year. We all know that climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns when that change lasts for extended period of time. Seventh is Garbage segregation. Almost all of elders and youths like me doesn’t know how to segregate their own garbage. We almost thrown everywhere our own garbage. So I suggest that we should have garbage truck that would roam around our province. And lastly, disposal Plastic usage in our province. That is also one of the problems of the people here in the Philippines. Many of elderlies and youths like me also don’t have discipline in using of plastics. Somewhat they always burn plastics even though it would destroy our nature. And that what my concerns are. Have a nice day!

Sincerely yours,
Leanne Jesse R. Rebullo
Grade 10 Marconi.
