HIS EXCELLENTLY RODRIGO DUTERTE
President of the Republic of the Philippines
Malacañang Palace, City of Manila
Philippines

Good day Mr. President,

Being a president of the Philippines is a tough and challenging job. Many problems and conflicts are being encountered, so as the president you are in charge of the peace and order in the country. The government should have a sovereign duty in protecting every Filipino's right.

In your administration, I can perceive that many people had been killed because of your campaign on drugs. It's been a year since you seated as the president of our country and your campaign on drugs has been truly continuing. People who are involved on drug addiction were being caught by the "Oplan Tokhang" but sometimes it end up on a bloody operation where other innocent people were accidentally involve, getting injuries.

In my own opinion sir, I am not fully in favor of the way on how you end drug usage. Because only God can take the lives we borrow to him. I can also sense that the different sectors are not given that much concern. The Department of Education is a very important sector because children like me depends on it. The knowledge we have are mostly learned in school. So, for the betterment of our country every countrymen should be educated.

Amidst of all of the happenings in our country, I still idolize you and I believe that with your own ways, Philippines will stand out and Filipino people will be known all over the world.

Respectfully yours,

Arianne A. Barrientos

Thy Heroism

     

     Year 1898, when Philippines avow it's day of Independence. For over 300 years, different countries rule over Filipinos. Spaniards, Japanese, and Americans are roots of our countrymen's pain, sorrow and they even endure excruciating. But because of our brave heroes who fight for our Mother land and who sacrifice their lives to make our country free from colonizers. Today, the government has a sovereign duty to protect our rights as citizens of this country.

       One-hundred twenty years of commemorating the heroism of the people who perished for the sake of our land, using armors and sword and also by the use of ink and pen. We celebrate independence to honor our fellow countrymen who spent their lives enduring the cruelness of colonizers. We celebrate the day we are freed to show that Filipino people are one, a family that helps and care for each other. Because of the people behind our freedom, our country is developing and everyone is being educated and we are very grateful for that.

          We must stick in our minds that even if we are now free, we must do our parts to make Philippines a better place. Where everyone has the freedom to show what they've got not only in our country but also all over the world. Because amidst the challenges we are experiencing we can say to them that "It's more fun in the Philippines".
