Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo’s trust rating continued to decline in the first quarter of 2017, according to a recent survey by Social Weather Stations (SWS).

The poll, conducted from March 25 to 28, showed that Robredo suffered a 15-point drop in her net trust rating, from a “good” +45 last December to +30 in the previous quarter. Fifty-five percent of respondents said they have “much trust” in Robredo, 25 percent had “little trust,” while 20 percent were undecided.

“We are grateful for the continued show of trust in Vice President Leni Robredo reflected in the recent SWS Trust Rating survey results. We are encouraged by the results of this survey which covers the period from December 2016 to March 2017—the first three months that VP Leni began work outside of Cabinet, and focused all her efforts on Angat Buhay, the Office of the Vice President’s Anti-Poverty initiative,” Hernandez said.

“The survey results are a reminder to us as well that there are still many Filipinos who place their trust in VP Leni and her ability to serve and give voice to those on the margins of society,” she added.
