Skills Development: Writing Formal Emails: Read The Instructions Carefully and Write Your Answer in The Green Box Below

The document provides instructions for writing a formal email in response to a situation. The email is to be between 120-150 words and express frustration that a scheduled speaker, Mr. Price, will no longer be attending an upcoming meeting. It suggests postponing the meeting until the speaker is available or holding a video conference instead. It also requests a 50% discount on the price of a book and allows half to be paid by a club to gain member support if the meeting is well organized. The writing is to use a formal style, check for errors, and spend about 20 minutes on the response.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Regarding the email that I received two days ago, I am writing to express my
extreme frustration with the fact that Mr Price will not attend our next meeting. I have been
looking forward to meeting the writer. I am sure that the other members share my feeling.
There must be some other alternatives that you can do. If I were you, I would
postpone the date and time of the meeting until the writer is available to attend. We can
have a video conference with the writer. It will save you a lot of money. Moreover,the price
of the book is too high. Please give us fifty percent discount and half of the price can be
paid by the club. I believe the members will support the club if you can organise the
meeting well.
I hope my suggestions will be taken into consideration. I am looking forward to
hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,
Sharidah Sharif
