The Palace said it was not surprised by a recent Pulse Asia
survey, which found that a majority of the people do not want Charter change,
nor do they support a term extension for the President.
In the latest Pulse Asia survey, 62 percent or a majority of
the respondents asked by the research group rejected Charter change.
Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary
Herminio Coloma, Jr. said they were not surprised by the survey result and they
gladly accept it.
At the same time, he said the President continues to listen
to the people, with the aim of making ongoing reforms in government permanent.
Public opinion surveys, such as the one conducted by Pulse
Asia, are among the tools to feel the people’s pulse, according to Coloma.
The Palace official also said that since day one, the
President has made it a point to know the opinion of his “bosses” because he
considers this an important element of good governance.
"This is a continuing process that the President has
committed to undertake as part of his stewardship as Chief Executive of the
land." (PCOO News Release)
