Roque: Duterte continues to have ‘excellent’ rating
Malacanang said President Rodrigo Duterte continued to enjoy “excellent” satisfaction rating because of his administration’s propoor programs despite a Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey that showed his net satisfaction rating dropped by 12 points.
Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said “it is noteworthy to mention” that the President’s satisfaction rating was still “very good” at +58 and remained strong in Mindanao.
He said that in Luzon and Visayas the President continued to enjoy very good satisfaction ratings.
Roque made the remarks in reaction to the SWS survey which was conducted from March 23 to 27.
“We remain grateful to our people for giving the Duterte administration a ‘very good’ +58 net satisfaction rating,” Roque said in a statement.
Roque cited public appreciation for the government’s help for victims of disasters where it got an “excellent” rating.
He attributed the President’s high satisfaction ratings to the administration’s initiatives to help the poor, rebuild Marawi City, build and maintain infrastructure, protect migrant Filipino workers, fight terrorism and protect human rights.
Roque said the government would continue to “champion the interests of the greatest number of our countrymen, particularly in redoubling our efforts in ensuring that no Filipino family will ever be hungry.”
