The Palace welcomes the Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey, showing President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s net satisfaction rating of +62, conducted in June 2021, or the start of his last year in office.

We consider this high satisfaction rating unprecedented as comparable data from previous Presidents indicate this is the highest net satisfaction rating of the beginning of a Chief Executive’s final year in office (President Corazon Aquino’s +24 in April 1991; President Fidel Ramos +49 in June 1997; President Joseph Estrada, unfinished term; President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo -31 in June 2009; President Benigno Aquino +30 in June 2015).

Rest assured that President Duterte will continue to exercise decisive and compassionate leadership until the remainder of his term to serve and protect the interest and welfare of all Filipinos.
