Dear Mr President,
I am writing to you about the problem of 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 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 authority. Yours Sincerely
Nguyen Van A
