Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Keyhan and I am writing to express my concern regarding the camera I bought from your representative in Japan
while
 I was on a trip a week ago.
Although
 I knew about your company's reputation and
this
 is the reason why I am one of your loyal costumers after I opened the box to observe the camera I found out that some important parts which were connector cable
along with
 charger are missing. As my country has no representative of your company in Iran
due to
 some sanctions imposed against us
therefore
, I am writing to you in Dubai which is the closest place to us. I would like to ask you to either send these accessories to me by post or make them ready for me to pick up whenever is possible for me to attend which I try to take place as soon as possible. Thank you for considering my issue in advance Ebrahimi Keyhan

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
