MOST Filipinos remained satisfied with the “very good” performance of the Duterte administration despite double digit drops in Metro Manila and Balance of Luzon, the latest Social Weather Stations survey revealed Thursday.

The Third Quarter 2017 Social Weather Stations survey of 1,500 respondents, found 71 percent of adult Filipinos were satisfied, and 13 percent were dissatisfied with the general performance of the current national administration, for a net satisfaction rating of +58, classified by SWS as “very good.”

Some 16 percent were undecided.

The net satisfaction rating was six points below the +64 posted in June 2017.

The polling company traced the six-point drop to satisfaction rating declines in Metro Manila (16 points) and Balance of Luzon (11 points). The administration’s ratings went up slightly in Mindanao (two points) and the Visays (one point).
