The campaign launched by President Rodrigo Duterte over three years ago continues to enjoy “excellent” net satisfaction rating despite the opposition’s call to probe the war on drugs.
The Social Weather Stations (SWS) conducted their second-quarter survey from June 22 to 26 this year. The survey found that 82% of adult Filipinos were satisfied, 6% were undecided, and 12% were dissatisfied with the government’s anti-drug campaign.
According to the SWS, this gives a net satisfaction rating of +70 that was classified as excellent and tied the 2019 first quarter rating. The net satisfaction on the anti-narcotics campaign has always been either very good or excellent in the past 11 survey rounds according to the pollster.
Since it was first surveyed in September 2016 with an excellent +77 rating, the net satisfaction rate with the said campaign has been excellent in Mindanao, except for the very good +66 rating in June 2017.
Based on the findings, 82% of Filipinos in all areas of the country cited the less number of drug suspects in the community as the top reason why they are satisfied with the war on drugs. The undecided respondents claimed drug trade and drug suspects are still prevalent. On the other hand, the dissatisfied respondents were the same group who recently gave Duterte lower net satisfaction rating.
The June 2019 survey also found that the net satisfaction rate with the performance of President Duterte was excellent +76 rating.
The Social Weather Stations conducted the survey using face-to-face interviews to 1,200 adult respondents nationwide.
