The
Duterte presidency has been controversial from the very beginning.

declared the illegal drug war as one of the cornerstone of his administration
to which has been criticized, maligned, and have been always the point of
attack of his detractors and local and foreign human rights groups.
Time and time again the
surveys from year one up to now more than halfway
his term the support of the people has not wavered, Filipinos are still

In a prepared statement , Presidential Spokesperson and
concurrent Presidential Legal Adviser said the survey results should serve as a
“wake-up call” against foreign groups and personalities who spread lies to
discredit his campaign against illegal drugs.
“Once again, this is a loud and clear repudiation
of the rambunctious political opposition and cantankerous detractors of
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte and his Administration,” Panelo said.
“This too shall serve as a wake-up call against
foreign countries and entities to take their cue from the genuine sentiments of
the Filipino people and cease from their continuous affront against our
sovereign state with their pretended or feigned concern about human rights,” he
added.
The recent Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey shows that 79
percent of Filipinos were satisfied with Duterte’s war on drugs, only 15
percent were dissatisfied, and the remaining 6 percent were undecided.
This gives the Duterte’s drug war a net
satisfaction rating of +64, classified by SWS as “very good.”
The figures is similar to the “very good” rating
last September 2018 to March 2017 which ranged from +63 to +66 but 6 points
below the “excellent” +70 rating in June and March 2019.
