Suggestions:
Dear Sir,
I have lived here for five years and during this time I have used most of the services of Thanh Ba post office. Now I am writing to show you my opinions of these services. The staffs here are very helpful and polite. They are willing to help when we need. The prices of the services here are quite reasonable, so most people in our neighborhood use the services here. However, there are still some matters. The equipment in the post office needs upgrading. Sometimes I needed to fax an urgent document but it was impossible because the fax machine was out of order. Moreover, the delivery of newspapers is never punctual. One more thing I want to mention is that the security conditions of the post office are not very good. There used to be property loss here.
 I am writing in the hope that these matters will be improved. If so, I believe more and more people will go to Thanh Ba post office.
 Yours faithfully,
