PRESIDENT Duterte
The net satisfaction rating of President Duterte climbed six points in the first quarter of 2019 Social Weather Stations survey.
The nationwide survey conducted from March 28 to 31 among 1,440 respondents found out that 79 percent were satisfied, eight percent were undecided, and 13 percent dissatisfied with the performance of Duterte in the past three months, for a net satisfaction rating of +66 (percent satisfied minus percent dissatisfied), classified by SWS as “very good.”
It is up by six points from the very good +60 in December 2018, and ties his personal high set in June 2017.
Compared to December 2018, the SWS said satisfaction with Duterte rose by five points from 74 percent, indecision fell by three points from 11 percent, and gross dissatisfaction fell by two points from 15 percent.
The SWS attributed the six-point rise in Duterte’s net satisfaction rating from December 2018 to March 2019 to increases of 15 points in Mindanao, seven points in Visayas, four points in the rest of Luzon, and three points in Metro Manila.
Duterte’s net satisfaction rating stayed excellent in Mindanao, at a new record-high +88 (92 percent satisfied, five percent dissatisfied) in March 2019, surpassing the previous record of +87 in March 2017 for this area.
It stayed very good in Visayas, at +69 (81 percent satisfied, 12 percent dissatisfied) in March, as well as in the rest of Luzon, at +56 (73 percent satisfied, 17 percent dissatisfied) in March.
It also stayed very good in Metro Manila, at +61 (76 percent satisfied, 14 percent dissatisfied). (Ellalyn V. Ruiz)
