Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin dismissed a recent Pulse Asia survey showing a slight decrease in President Marcos' approval and trust ratings, arguing that effective leadership prioritizes public interest over popularity. Bersamin stressed that President Marcos is focused on delivering tangible results for the country, such as economic growth and job creation, rather than chasing high ratings. While acknowledging the value of surveys as indicators of public sentiment, Bersamin emphasized that governance success should be measured by concrete achievements.
Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin yesterday brushed aside a recent survey showing a slight decline in President Marcos ’ ratings, emphasizing that the chief executive would rather focus on leading the country to the best of his abilities instead of bothering with the publicity value of all his decisions.
The survey, showing a two and three percent decline in Mr. Marcos’ approval and trust ratings respectively, was conducted from November 26 to December 3 on 2,400 respondents. “As the President’s actions show, we have remained focused on our critical mission of uplifting lives, growing the economy, and securing our future,” pointed out.
Among the four highest officials in the country—President, Vice President, Senate President, and Speaker of the House—Duterte had the biggest decline.
