Based of the results of the Pulse Asia survey held from September 10 to 14, 56% of Filipinos disapprove and 16% approve of the government’s efforts to control inflation, while 28% are undecided.

The Marcos government obtained the lowest public approval ratings in its response to gut issues: poverty reduction (29% in September from 43% in June), increasing workers’ pay (41% from 52%), and fight against corruption (45%), creating more jobs (43% from 53%), and addressing involuntary hunger (46%).

I personally don't trust Pulse Asia that much despite it makes them look bad. I always question what bias in terms of age, region, number of people and income bracket the survey was conducted. There is also who funded this survey. Then again if this make people realize that they voted the wrong guy I'll take it. Though unfortunate that it needs a survey for people to realize that.
