Dear Mr President,
I’m writing to you about (the catching of fish of many people…) the problem of (fishing) fish catching in the lake behind my house
I am very worried because people (don’t use fishing rod or net but) use electricity
to catch fish After a short time they left the lake / place ,a lot of small fish died and floated on the water surface Other animals such as frogs, toads and even birds also died from electric shock waves
I would suggest the local authorities should prohibit and fine heavily anyone using this way of catching fish
I look forward to hearing from you and seeing the protection of environment from the local authorities
Yours sincerely,
(signature)
