Pres. Aquino thanks people for their continuing trust in his administration

President Benigno S. Aquino III on Tuesday (Nov. 18) thanked the Filipino people, amid reports that ratings on public satisfaction in his administration have improved in the latest survey conducted by the Social Weather Stations (SWS).

President Aquino expressed that he is no longer surprised by this development, as he was firm on his belief that the general public would eventually recognize the reforms implemented by his government.

The latest SWS survey showed gross satisfaction with the national administration climbing to 59 percent and dissatisfaction falling to 24 percent, which MalacaƱang has described as “historically high” compared to previous administrations.

In the second quarter, the administration’s ratings fell to record lows in all geographical areas and declined across socioeconomic classes with 56 percent satisfied, 26 percent dissatisfied, and 18 percent ambivalent.

President Aquino noted that the two-and-a-half million Filipinos they have been able to lift out of poverty, as well as the 1.2 million jobs they have managed to create during the course of their administration are probably among the things that contributed to such improvement in the latest ratings.
