Aquino III.<\/p>\n<p>Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said public confidence in President Aquino remains strong even as the Chief Executive nears the end of his term.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmong the top national government officials included in the survey, only the President obtained a majority approval rating: 52 percent for performance, up from 49 percent last January. In terms of location, this is supported by majority approvals in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The President\u2019s trust rating likewise rose to 49 percent, up from 39 percent last February \u2013 with distrust falling from 24 percent to 21 percent,\u201d Secretary Lacierda said in a statement issued on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The Pulse Asia research team interviewed 1,800 people from March 12 to 18 for the survey.<\/p>\n<p>Lacierda said President Aquino&#8217;s high rating is a reflection of the people\u2019s approval of the Daang Matuwid, an advocacy anchored on good governance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThroughout his term, President Aquino has obtained historically high approval ratings. On a larger scale, these positive ratings reflect the people\u2019s approval of Daang Matuwid \u2013 and the reforms and programs initiated under it. Just this morning, the President led the ceremonial turnover of 135 fire trucks and 144 patrol jeeps \u2013 further testaments to the extent of our country\u2019s transformation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnder the consecutive leadership of Secretary Jesse Robredo, Secretary Mar Roxas, and now Secretary Mel Sarmiento, the Department of the Interior and Local Government has continued to make appropriate investments for the benefit of our citizens. As a result, all our cities now have at least one fire truck, and \u2013 upon the delivery of today\u2019s 144 jeeps \u2013 police stations in every city and municipality will now be equipped with at least one patrol jeep,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The Palace official expressed optimism that the public would vote wisely in the May elections to ensure the continuity of the Aquino administration\u2019s reforms and programs.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> buy clenbuterol online <a href=\"http:\/\/mediaidinc.com\/Contact\/Maps\/jpg\/clenbuterol.html\">http:\/\/mediaidinc.com\/Contact\/Maps\/jpg\/clenbuterol.html<\/a> no prescription pharmacy <\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s turnover ceremony \u2013 as well as the President\u2019s positive approval ratings \u2013 speaks volumes about our recent achievements.

In exercising their duty as citizens, it is our hope that voters will discern well among the candidates, bear in mind the long view, and keep to the Straight Path,\u201d said Lacierda.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Communication Secretary Herminio Coloma, Jr. said the surge in President Aquino\u2019s ratings signifies that the gains from the government\u2019s programs on good governance and transparency and inclusive economic growth have been spread equitably among all socio-demographic classes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are extremely grateful for the show of support and confidence of our people as we vow to double our efforts in improving the quality of life of our Bosses in our remaining months in office. As we prepare for a peaceful and orderly transition of power in the coming national elections in May, we are confident that our people shall choose the candidates who shall best continue the legacy of social transformation of the Aquino administration,\u201d Secretary Coloma said.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> buy aurogra online <a href=\"http:\/\/mediaidinc.com\/Contact\/Maps\/jpg\/aurogra.html\">http:\/\/mediaidinc.com\/Contact\/Maps\/jpg\/aurogra.html<\/a> no prescription pharmacy <\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA \u2013 Malaca\u00f1ang has welcomed the results of the latest Pulse Asia survey showing the public\u2019s strong confidence in the &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":56824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1482,1145,16,95],"tags":[9640],"class_list":["post-73565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-breaking","category-headline","category-news","category-news-ph","tag-pna","mauthors-philippines-news-agency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73565"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73565\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":286953,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73565\/revisions\/286953"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56824"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
