Amidst the criticism that President Rodrigo Roa Duterte faced after Social Weather Stations (SWS) released the results of his net satisfaction and trust ratings, the said firm\u2019s president on Tuesday called the drop normal but \u2018faster than average.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know about the terms \u2018wake-up call\u2019 or something like that\u2026If I were just to say, nevermind the news. Let us look at the pattern over time. Well I would just say that the fall is a little bit faster than average,\u201d Mahar Mangahas, President of SWS said in an interview with ANC.<\/p>\n

Of the 1500 Filipino adults surveyed from September 23-27, SWS classified Duterte\u2019s net satisfaction rating of +48 as \u201cGood,\u201d a significant two-digit drop from his \u201cVery Good\u201d rating of +66 in June 2017. His trust rating which was +75 classified as \u201cExcellent\u201d dropped to a \u201cVery Good\u201d of +60.<\/p>\n

His critics including Senator Antonio Trillanes IV, Senator Risa Hontiveros, Senator Bam Aquino, opposition coalition #TindigPilipinas, and others chose to use these results as a \u2018sign\u2019 that the people are losing faith in Duterte, his administration, and his presidency.<\/p>\n

Mangahas, however, said that this is only the President\u2019s second year. \u201cThey all fall…It\u2019s not something to be proud about yet. If he can continue and match the records of Cory [Aquino], [Fidel] Ramos, and Noynoy [Aquino], then it\u2019s something to talk about,\u201d he said in the same interview.<\/p>\n

He said that former President Noynoy Aquino had the best ratings of all, and if Duterte wants to be as popular, he has to maintain his rating for at least two more years.<\/p>\n

Some politicians like Senator Panfilo Lacson and Senator Sherwin Gatchalian think that this is just part of the \u2018cycle of politics\u2019 and that the President\u2019s new brand of leadership got people excited.<\/p>\n

In the same way, Malaca\u00f1ang agreed. \u201c[The people\u2019s] expectations were high and the actual implementation of these things may have lead to the dip. However, people are still in general, still satisfied,\u201d Presidential Spokesperson Ernesto Abella said in a press briefing on Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
