Below is the speech for the Governor's annual " Meet the People" session


Dear fellow compatriots,
In this year's session, I would like to talk about the hardships that the farmers are experiencing now due to the reforestation/conservation project by the officials. So due to the energy-consuming tasks, the farmers are facing hardships. The definition of the word "farmer is a person who grows field crops, and/or manages orchards or vineyards, or raises livestock or poultry. Their products are usually sold in a market or, in a subsistence economy, consumed by the family or pooled by the community. With the above information, I hope that you all can get a slight grasp of what a farmer does. Our farmers have really forsaken their job of fielding crops or managing orchids or vineyards to help to restore our natural environment. They are very kind and have a sense of global-awareness. They are also our food-producers, without them, we would have nothing to eat. Hence, farmers are noble and they are indispensable in our daily life. We wouldn't want to eat Genetically modified food which does not taste nice if there are no farmers. We should not look down on them as blue collars who have a meagre earning and can hardly make both ends meet. We should really not do that. With regards, I will end my speech here. Thank you.
