I am extremely sorry that I could not attend your class this Thursday. But there ‘s genuine reason for that. On that day, I have to attend the Provincial Youth Development Plan Training-Workshop to be conducted at Calbayog City, Samar. The said training-workshop is required for the preparation of our Plans, Programs, and Activities to be implemented next year in our barangay. May I request from your good office to be excused in your class today. Hereby, I am enclosing a copy of the communication from the DILG with regards to the training- workshop. Hoping for your kind consideration and understanding regarding this matter.
