President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Wednesday said the improved satisfaction rating on his performance is ‘nice,’ adding that the government will just continue its job of providing service to the public.
Based on the latest Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey conducted from June 25 to 29, 46 percent of adult Filipinos were satisfied with Marcos’ performance.
At a brief media interview in Masbate City, Marcos was asked about where the higher survey ratings in the second quarter of 2025 can be attributed. ‘You know what? I have no idea. I don’t look so much at. It’s, of course, nice to note. I didn’t know about that. But now that you tell me, of course I’m glad that it’s that way,’ he responded.
‘I guess we just have to keep working. Whatever happens-whether there’s a typhoon, a scandal, or unrest-the people expect the government to continue its service, to continue its work at every level-at the national level, at the local level-just to keep going,’ the President added, partly in Filipino.
He added that elected public servants should not be seen as merely playing around or politicking but as working for the welfare of the people.
The latest SWS survey also showed that 36 percent were dissatisfied with the President’s performance, and 19 percent were undecided, producing a net satisfaction score of ‘moderate’ +10.
This showed a 20-point improvement from the ‘poor’ -10 net rating recorded in April 2025.
