14.4.2011 LI: to persuade someone that kiwis are the best.

**Wednesday 6th April** = LI:to wright a letter to someone important about a problem that you know of. =

 __**Dangers in the city of Christchurch**__

Do you think that you are doing the right thing? Maybe you do, **but I don’t!** I think there should be a big evacuation going on right now! At the moment Christchurch's death toll is **huge**! and you can stop it from getting bigger just by saying to people “if you have somewhere to stay I suggest you go”, and with the people that have nowhere to go they are to be evacuated from the center city **immediately** and moved to a safer place.

To solve some of the problems Christchurch has, you have succeeded in saving lots of citizens lives with some brilliant ideas like putting giant tubes in peoples homes. If you keep this up people that could have been dead will survive and the death toll will not rise. Do not think that Christchurch is not expecting other earthquakes because anything can happen and the death toll rising is one of those things that may occur at anytime.

If I were the mayor I would say that Christchurch needs more help with anything from anyone, anywhere! One of the major problems that there is going to be is that if we were to rebuild Christchurch it would cost New Zealand **billions** of dollars and thats money that a lot of us do not have. Even though some people are being evacuated the search must carry on.Emergency vehicles should not leave the site either, you need them in the area incase you find more people trapped or injured.

To conclude this letter I would again like to remind you what is at stake and what you can do to help, do not let your people down.Once again I suggest you evacuate now or the death toll will keep rising which will lead to the population of New Zealand getting smaller.As the mayor, I hope you will make the right choice for your people and community.

Yours sincerely Karl Jones.

To solve some of the problems Christchurch has, you have succeeded in saving lots of citizens lives with some brilliant ideas like putting giant tubes in peoples homes. If you keep this up people that could have been dead will survive and the death toll will not drop. Do not think that Christchurch is not expecting other earthquakes because anything can happen and the death toll rising is one of those things that may occur at anytime.

If I were the mayor I would say that Christchurch needs more help with anything from anyone, anywhere! One of the major problems that there is going to be is that if we were to rebuild Christchurch it would cost New Zealand **THOUSANDS** of dollars and thats money that a lot of us do not have. Even though some people are being evacuated the search must carry on.Emergency vehicles should not leave the site either, you need them in the area incase you find more people trapped or injured.
