Q1. Complaint letter: Serving sub-standard coffee in a newly established restaurant. (Assume the

Dear Sir,
I visited your newly established coffee shop on March 11, 2023. The coffee served was not according to
your brand’s standards. I am genuinely disappointed by the coffee’s quality.
My coworkers and I enjoy dining at your restaurant in the Garden Town branch. This time we decided to
visit your new branch as it is located at a convenient location for appetizers and drinks after work.
Although, it was disappointing to see that the staff at your newly established branch seems to not care
about certain standards and just serves the coffee. I suspect that your shop’s coffee caused food
poisoning. The coffee smelled awful, every ingredient seemed substandard, and no one seemed to care
about hygiene.
I am not in a position to professionally investigate what was wrong with that coffee but I have explained
everything and I want you to conduct an investigation in your Model Town, Lahore branch and make sure
that coffee and every other product is according to your standards and is served with hygiene.

Dear Sir,
I would like to inform you about an incident that took place on the 15th of this month. I was at the
airport to catch a flight to Multan. It was very disappointing for me because the security personnel
misbehaved with me.
This was my first experience taking a domestic flight. I did not have any idea what was going to happen
at the airport. I took out my ticket, passport, and other required documents to get them checked and
board the flight. Having no idea, I stood in line near the counter but I did not know it was a random
information counter. A security guard at the check post came running towards me. He aggressively
grabbed my arm and physically assaulted me.
Moreover, he started scolding me and his tone was harsh. It was so embarrassing as everyone around
was staring at me as if I were caught committing an illegal act. It made me so angry and uncomfortable
throughout my journey.
The purpose of security personnel should be to protect the people and to help them when needed. I
hope the disciplinary committee will take action against this impolite and offensive behavior of your
security personnel. Their rude behavior may tend to be a bad stature for people, especially foreigners.

Without this letter, they won’t consider me an illegible candidate.

potential candidate with insight into my character and skills. I am not sure which department of the
college will be accepting your letter so you may write it generally as ‘to whom it may concern’ letter.
The college would like for you to return this letter, no later than the 15th of this month. Thank you, I

Dear Sir,
Urbanization led to the development of cities with an increase in the number of roads. Although we find
it more convenient to travel now, we must abide by the traffic rules to ensure our and our loved ones'
safety.
I am writing to express my concern about the increasing number of accidents on highways in Pakistan.
These accidents are causing loss of life and property and it is becoming a major problem. There are many
causes of these accidents which include:
Furthermore, a lack of enforcement of the existing traffic laws is making the situation worse.
Road accidents not only affect the people directly involved but also endangers the lives of others on the
road. However, this can be prevented by providing:
More stringent laws should be implemented to punish those who violate traffic laws.
I am sure that with these measures, the number of accidents on highways can be reduced significantly.
Authorities must make sure to make people follow such rules and laws. For this, the National Highway
Authority is requested to take the necessary steps. Life is a gift of God. We will be very thankful if the
authorities take such steps as soon as possible to ensure the safety of our citizens. Thank you for your
time and consideration.

Dear Sir,
Cleanliness is half of faith. We can not live a healthy life without taking care of our surroundings. To
ensure a happy and healthy life, we must keep our drainage system in check as water does more than
just quench our thirst.
Looking back on history, just a few decades ago, we did not have a proper drainage system.
Unfortunately, even in today's advanced world, we still find the same issue in our city. Any drainage
system would collapse if not maintained. The losses people had to suffer in our city due to the collapse
include:
Giving rise to many fatal diseases including malaria, dengue, hepatitis, and many stomach
diseases and infections;
The rural areas of our city have suffered the most. On top of that, the poor people living in these areas
can not afford to compensate for the loss by themselves. In such a situation, it is recommended by
professionals to:
Have the drainage system professionally cleaned and tested once a year to prevent such a
collapse to occur again;
Clearing away any debris that might have been collected and making sure to keep wastewater
and the pipes in check.
As you know, the city Government is responsible for providing such basic needs. It would be highly
appreciated if the Government takes an action to prevent the recurrence of a similar situation in the
future and to compensate for the loss of those who suffered.

Dear Sir,
We received the letter from you claiming that the sprays you purchased from our company were expired.
We have immediately replaced your expired sprays with new and fresh ones.
All our records in our database have shown that the new model should have been supplied to the
market but upon further investigation, we realized that one of our personnel made an error. A few
expired cartons of spray were inadvertently supplied to the market instead of EFG Waste Buster
Company. We wanted to send the expired cartons to properly dispose of these obsolete pray cartons but
unfortunately few cartons were supplied to the market. This was the result of careless reading. On this
note,
We have increased and retrained our personnel in the product and sales department.
Before any commodity is shipped to its final destination, it has to pass through several checks
and counts.
We, at the ABC company, understand the essence of this complaint. We have brought back all of our
expired sprays from the market and replaced them with new and effective ones. We are terribly sorry for
this inconvenience. We hope to continue our business in this fight against Malaria.

Dear Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of authorities
concerned about the recent, never seen before, price hike of petrol and diesel in our country.
The prices of fuels like petrol and diesel is skyrocketing continuously for the last few months impacting
citizens and the overall economy of the country. The owners of the two-wheelers and cars find it very
difficult to bear the expenses of fuel because of the steep hike. The cost of tickets for daily passengers
using public vehicles has also become very dear. The rise in the price of daily goods caused by the price
hike of fuels has turned the lives of common people unbearable.
If this situation continues, normal life will be paralyzed. We must, by all means, get rid of this kind of
price hike. Yet the government and the concerned authorities are callous and indifferent in this case.
It is high time that concerned authorities should wake up to this social problem and try to put reins to
the rising prices so that people can lead a comfortable and peaceful life.

MEMO
To: Employees
As we will be expanding our business to 3 more cities this year, we need to improve the production. We
need to enhance our production and efficiency at every level in our company.
The company shall be offering a 10-15% increase in the basic monthly salary and a 3-5% increase in
health, home rent, and conveyance allowances to the workers who work extended work hours.
All the employees, at whatever level they may be, who work with the company for an increase in
production shall be awarded a monthly performance acknowledgment certificate and an increase in
gratuity by 4-7%.
To: Employees
As we are all aware, the economy is posing challenges for everyone. Recently, the state bank has
changed the monetary policy and imposed high duties on cross-border imports.
This has caused a decrease in the availability of raw materials at reasonable prices, which in turn has
affected production and sale. In an effort to manage the company’s assets conservatively, the executive
team has come to a difficult but necessary conclusion.
Effective from April 1, 2023, all exempt employees will receive a 5% decrease in their annual salary. We
appreciate your hard work, and we know will have your support for continued business progress.
