Dear President Marcos,

    I am writing to you to express my feelings and what I want to say to you. I want to express my gratitude and my worries to you about your leadership in our country and what's it's impact to us, your citizens. As a student, I have so much hope for our country, I believe that with your leadership there's so much significant improvement that you can make in order for our country to progress and face our challenges effectively.

    Firstly, I want to express my gratitude for your passion and commitment that you dedicate to our country, to us, your citizens and your role as the country's leader. Your role as the president is really hard and involves a lot of work in hand. I want to acknowledge the hard work and effort you give in facing our country's struggles and hardship.

    While I appreciate the efforts that have been made so far, I am also very worried about current human rights problems that threaten our country. Human rights violations like extrajudicial killings, attacks against political activists and journalists, and abuses, unjust arrests, and limits on freedom of speech hurt people and create fear among the citizens. It’s important to address these issues to rebuild trust in our government and ensure everyone is treated fairly with respect. Everyone should receive the justice they deserve, regardless of their financial situation. Justice should be fair and available to everyone, not just to those who can afford it.

I respectfully urge your administration to take strong actions to fix these problems which can include looking into abuse complaints, making sure laws protecting human rights are strictly implemented, and supporting victims in their seeking for justice. Also, improving transparency in government actions and creating programs to educate people about human rights can help promote a better society.

    I do believe in your integrity as the president and it is important to take into consideration the millions of Filipino people who look up to you as the president who's capable of addressing such problems. I deeply care for our country and I wanna see how our country will improve. I hope you will continue dedicating passion for our country and give what our country and its citizens deserve.

Sincerely,

Rhaeanne Jem Garcia
