The recent Social
Weather Stations (SWS) surveyare out and its still the same from the start of his presidency up to the present the numbers will not lie- Filipinos are satisfied with the performance of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
With the
results being made public by SWS Presidential Spokesperson and con-current
Presidential Legal adviser Atty. Salvador Panelo cannot help but take a swipe
at the “crab-mentality “ of the Presidents detractors, saying the more they
“malign” the President, the higher the rating he gets.

“The more
the critics and detractors malign PRRD (President Rodrigo Roa Duterte), the
higher the rating he gets. These political adversaries are being swallowed by
their own hubris. Survey after survey they are being repudiated,” he said in a
statement.
The survey
shows that 79% of adult Filipinos were satisfied with Duterte’s performance,
equivalent to a “very good” rating.
The figure
represents a 5-point increase from the 74 percent gross satisfaction in
December.
Only 13
percent of adult Filipinos meanwhile said they were dissatisfied with the
President’s performance, 2 points lower from the 15 percent dissatisfaction
rating in December last year.
“The
critics, detractors and the political opposition have been deaf to the voice of
a great majority of our people and blind to the sweeping changes in the
political and social landscape effected by this unorthodox, maverick and
daredevil leader who is fiercely devoted to - and protective of - the interest
of the greater masses of our people,” Panelo said.
Panelo has
urged all the critics of the President to support all the endorsed candidates
of the President this comig May elections since Duterte is “racing against
time” to fulfill his campaign promises.
“Rather than
continue with their hate campaign against the President they should join the
majority supporting Administration's programs designed to serve and protect the
nation and its citizenry and start contributing for the country’s progress,” he
said.
President
Duterte has maintained his high popularity among Filipinos nearly 3 years into
his presidency. He won in a landslide victory in 2016 on the promise of changes
in government and an intensive campaign against illegal drugs and corruption.
