MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— Amid oppositions to his strong pronouncements as Chief Executive, political analysts from two of the top universities in Metro Manila think that President Rodrigo Duterte\u2019s performance is both supported and enjoyed by the general public.<\/p>\n

Edmund Tayao, executive director of the Local Government Development Foundation (LOGODEF) and a political analyst from Ateneo de Manila University, said the public “still very much agree with what the President is doing.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThe public remains approving of his performance, given his continuous popularity,\u201d he said in a phone interview on Thursday.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, survey firm Social Weather Stations (SWS) published Duterte\u2019s 78 percent approval rating for the third quarter of 2019 with a +-65 percent net satisfactory rating, +- 2.3 percent margin of error.<\/p>\n

The figure is three points lower than his second-quarter rating but it still falls under SWS’s “Very Good” category.<\/p>\n

It also showed that rich Filipinos or class ABC were more satisfied with Duterte with +-70 percent rating which is his personal best.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe upper class recognizes the effectiveness of how the government is handling the economy,\u201d Tayao added.<\/p>\n

Last Friday, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) reported a steady drop in the inflation rate from 1.7 percent in August to 0.9 percent at present.<\/p>\n

However, Duterte\u2019s trust rating is down with 11 points in Class E with +-57 percent.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t expect consistency from all classes, especially from the lower class since they have issues, they deal with on their day to day lives. There is no significant change because, in general, the President is enjoying the trust of the people,\u201d Tayao said.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Ranjit Rye, University of the Philippines\u2019 assistant vice president for public affairs, said the 11-point drop is not surprising with the slow progress of solution for everyday problems such as the traffic condition.<\/p>\n

\u201cLarge constituents of people are having a hard time. The important thing for the government is to find where the sentiments are coming from and improve on it. The President is still widely popular but they also have come up with ways to effectively and efficiently roll out the programs especially for the farmers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Recently, the Department of Agrarian Reform announced that it has improved its processes to release the certificate of land ownership award (CLOA) to farmers around the country, following President Duterte\u2019s order to uplift the status of Filipino farmers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
