MANILA \u2013 According to the results of the latest Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey, still more Filipinos prefer peaceful negotiations than military operations in dealing with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite the recent drop in March 2015, the ratio of those who prefer peaceful negotiations to those who prefer military operations is 2 to 1,\u201d SWS poll stated.<\/p>\n

Despite the majority of the masses favoring peace talks, the overall number of those who held the said opinion declined from last year.<\/p>\n

Based from the survey results, 45 percent of the 1,200 respondents nationwide believed peaceful negotiations were more effective; 20 percent asserted that military operations were more effective; and 35 percent were neutral, saying both peaceful negotiations and military operations were effective.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The said survey was conducted at the same time last year but showed better results. Of the 1,200 respondents, 62 percent preferred peaceful negotiations, 9 percent preferred military operations and 29 percent were neutral.<\/p>\n

The recent SWS poll was conducted from March 20 to 23, two months after the Mamasapano incident wherein the Special Action Force (SAF) sought the capture of international terrorist Zulkifi bin Hir, alias \u201cMarwan.<\/p>\n

\u201d Marwan was killed but so were 44 of the SAF police commandos.<\/p>\n

The said survey had been conducted yearly since 1999.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Of the 12 polls conducted so far, all have showed that more respondents believed that peaceful negotiations were most effective in dealing with the MILF.<\/p>\n

On a different but related survey also conducted this year, the government\u2019s ratings related on peace efforts fell. On defending the country\u2019s territorial rights, only 22 percent was satisfied from the 40 percent last year. \u00a0On the reconciliation with Moro rebels, only 3 percent was satisfied from the 15 percent last year. And on the reconciliation with Communist rebels, only 3 percent was satisfied from the 17 percent last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
