An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

MODERATORS
 

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%).

Political analyst, Richard Heydarian, can vouch for Pulse Asia. Whether people admit it or not, Filipinos simply are not very politically literate and are bobotantes. Arroyo, Padilla, Marcoses, Binays and Estradas are still in power in spite of brazen corruption. We, as the public, should support initiatives to educate the masses. Because the oligarchs are intentionally dumbing the people.

Edit:literate not illiterate

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.
