Palace thanks public for “very good” satisfaction rating given to Duterte admin

(Eagle News)–The Palace on Sunday, Oct. 7, thanked the public for the very good satisfaction rating it gave the Duterte administration, based on a Social Weather Stations survey.

“As the survey shows, in what Social Weather Stations  calls its Governance Report Card, of the 14 specific subjects rated, we received the lowest rating in fighting inflation. Nonetheless, public satisfaction remains “very good” at +50 during the time when our people are feeling the hit of a faster inflation rate when the survey was conducted last September,” Roque said.

According to Roque, “regardless of the numbers, we assure everyone that the Administration is working double time to ensure prices of basic goods become stable as we cushion the impact of higher inflation.”

“May mga hakbang nang isinagawa ang pamahalaan, kasama na ang pag-angkat ng bigas at pagsibak ng mga ilang tauhan na may kinalaman sa pagkawala ng libo-libong sako ng bigas, para masolusyunan ang kakulungan ng suplay sa pamilihan na siyang nagpapataas ng presyo  ng mga bilihin,” he said.

According to the recent SWS survey, 65% of adult Filipinos are satisfied with the national government’s performance.

This gives a net satisfaction rating of +50,  an 8-point decrease from the +58 in June 2018, but still classified by SWS as very good.
