An Open Letter for the Current President

 Dear Mr. President,

            

            Good day, sir. I'm a young student who considers herself fortunate to still be in school and to be leading a reasonably normal life despite the current situation, which has prompted me to take this chance to write to you. We have seen how you carry out your duties despite the fact that many Filipinos continue to criticize you and your ideas on how to act and effectively address these pandemic problems. I would just like to commend you and express my simple, yet sincere gratitude for all of the actions and difficult decisions you have implemented and promulgated over the past few days and weeks.

             With all due respect, you are not what many people thought represented the future of our nation. My concern is with a lot of things that aren't in your people's best interests or the public good. Putting myself in your shoes, I believe that no one was more qualified than you to make and carry out a decision with conviction. Yes, it is true, and as we have seen, the Philippines is currently experiencing an economic crisis. Many of the country's most vulnerable citizens are still unable to survive because they are not covered by the government's social assistance programs. However, I can tell that you are still trying to figure out the best course of action. In the end, it is not simple. In addition to the health crisis, people are constantly complaining and expressing grievances to the government.

            Thank you, Mr. President, for showing how to maintain composure in the face of pandemonium. Being a great person means acting and dismissing criticism for the sake of the Philippines and your fellow Filipino citizens. I know that many of us share your frustration at being unsure of what to do because it is not as easy as it may seem. I pray to God that He will give you more courage and insight into the next steps to be taken in order to create a community that is more orderly and secure. May all Filipinos comprehend the importance of a community quarantine and observe the social distancing rules for the sake of everyone. Then, as we work together and fight for a better Philippines, we may gradually reduce the number of COVID positives and, with any luck, accelerate the end of suffering for everyone. I'm happy to have the opportunity to write for the president of the Philippines and to demonstrate that we are all fighting this struggle together along.

     Very yours truly,                                                  Jehan
