President of the Philippines 

Malacañang Palace

Dear Mr. President,

I hope this letter finds you well.

The Department of Education has a large impact on the development of the country's economic status. With quality education comes an improved and richer economy. With this being said, I wish to yield more attention to the educational sector.

To be precise, I'm referring to the underpayment of employed teachers in public education. Despite the hectic workloads of teachers every day with little to no breaks, they are still not receiving ample amounts of money. Furthermore, there are plenty of teachers who get overworked, as they handle more sections. Personally, I don't think that their breaks are enough to make up for the underpayment. So, I hope that the public teachers in the Department of Education will be more noticed by giving them the right salary that they work hard for.

I will be patiently waiting for your kind response. Thank you, and God Bless!

Respectfully yours, 

Airish Yafa Landicho
