I'm an architecture student at the Technological Institute of the Philippines, Manila. As part of our curriculum to conduct a study/research, we are writing this letter to request your good agency to secure documents formally. I am conducting a comprehensive study to understand the labor market dynamics in Sta. Rosa Laguna. As part of this initiative, I'm particularly interested in acquiring relevant MSME information, including workforce demographics, employment trends, and skills availability within the area such as:


1. Data regarding the number of employees in the MSME sector who reside in Laguna
2. Employment trends and job opportunities in the MSME sector in Sta. Rosa, Laguna
3. Workforce demographics
4. Job demand projections for the MSME sector in Sta. Rosa over the next few years
5. List of establishments in Laguna, specifically in Sta. Rosa Laguna


Rest assured that all items are entirely for research purposes will not be disclosed to outside parties and will be treated with utmost confidentiality. Thank you.
