MANILA — Vice President Sara Duterte retained the highest net satisfaction rating among four senior government officials in the latest public opinion survey, despite experiencing a notable 10-point decline in support.
The Social Weather Stations (SWS) conducted the survey between September 21 and 27, polling 1,500 Filipino adults aged 18 and older across the country through face-to-face interviews. The sampling methodology captured responses from respondents nationwide to gauge public sentiment toward key government figures.
Duterte's satisfaction rating of 51 percent, while still outpacing her counterparts in government, reflects shifting public opinion in recent months. The 10-point decrease marks a significant movement in the Vice President's approval metrics as measured by the independent polling organization.
The SWS survey represents one of the most comprehensive measures of public confidence in high-ranking Philippine officials, tracking satisfaction levels among the nation's leadership. The results provide insight into evolving perceptions of government performance as the administration navigates ongoing policy challenges and public priorities.
