This is a 12-point rise, and up by one grade, from the very good +58 (71% satisfied, 13% dissatisfied) in September This surpassed the previous record of very good +66 achieved in June 2013 (Noynoy Aquino Administration), and in September 2016 and March 2017 (Duterte Administration). Excellent in Mindanao and NCR; Very ood in Balance Luzon and Visayas The 12-point gain in the Duterte Administration s general net satisfaction rating between September to December 2017 was due to new record-high net satisfaction scores achieved in Mindanao, NCR, and Balance Luzon, combined with a steady score in the Visayas. The National Administration s net rating stayed excellent in Mindanao, at a new record-high +87 in December 2017, up by 13 points from +74 in September This surpassed the previous Mindanao record of +81 in September 2016 [Chart 2; Table 2]. It rose by one grade from very good to excellent in NCR, at a new record-high +71 in December, up by 20 points from +51 in September. This surpassed the previous NCR record of +67 in June It stayed very good in Balance Luzon, at a new record-high +67 in December, up by 15 points from +52 in September.

Double-digit increases in the National Administration s net satisfaction rating occurred among men, among the 35 year olds and above, and among non-elementary school graduates, elementary school graduates, and college graduates [Table 4].

Very ood on 5, ood on 11, and Moderate on 2 subjects Out of 18 specific performance subjects rated, the net satisfaction ratings of the Duterte administration were very good on 5 subjects, good on 11 subjects, and moderate on 2 subjects. SWS calls this its overnance Report Card [Tables 5 and 6]. The net rating of the National Administration was very good on: Fighting terrorism (+67), Helping the poor (+66), Building and maintenance of public works like roads and bridges (+59), Foreign relations (+55), and Providing jobs () [Charts 4 to 8]. It was good on: Reconciling with Muslim rebels (+48), Telling the truth to the people (+47), Defending the country's territorial rights (+46), Protecting human rights (+45), Reconciling with communist rebels (+43), Fighting crimes (+43), Eradicating graft and corruption (+42), Ensuring an efficient public transportation system (+42), Ensuring that no family will ever be hungry (+33), Solving the problem of extra judicial killings or EJK (), and Ensuring that oil companies do not take advantage of oil prices () [Charts 9 to 19]. It was moderate on: Fighting inflation (+24) and Resolving the traffic problem (+23) [Charts 20 and 21]. National Administration s net rating improves on 7 subjects, declines on 1, steady on others The December 2017 survey found the National Administration s net rating improved on 7 specific subjects, declined on 1 specific subject, and steady on others, compared to when they were last surveyed.

4 17 January 2018, page 4 of 21 The moderate +24 on Fighting inflation hardly changed from the moderate +21 in September The moderate +23 on Resolving the traffic problem was 1 point higher than the moderate +22 in September Survey background The December 2017 Social Weather Survey was conducted from December 8-16, 2017 using faceto-face interviews of 1,200 adults (18 years old and above) nationwide: 300 each in Metro Manila, Balance Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao (sampling error margins of ±3% for national percentages, and ±6% each for Metro Manila, Balance Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao). The area estimates were weighted by Philippine Statistics Authority medium-population projections for 2017 to obtain the national estimates. The Social Weather Survey items on public satisfaction with the general performance of the National Administration, and its performance on specific subjects, are non-commissioned. These items were included on SWS's own initiative and released as a public service. The satisfaction rating of the general performance of the National Administration is based on a single question, and is not an average of answers to separate questions on specific subjects. The general rating is repeated every quarter, whereas only a core of the specific subject-ratings are repeated. Subjects are included or excluded depending on their contemporary salience. The survey question on public satisfaction with the overall performance of the national administration is as follows: Sa pangkalahatan, gaano po kayo nasisiyahan o hindi nasisiyahan sa kasalukuyang administrasyong nasyonal? Kayo po ba ay LUBOS NA NASISIYAHAN, MEDYO NASISIYAHAN, HINDI TIYAK KUN NASISIYAHAN O HINDI, MEDYO HINDI NASISIYAHAN, o LUBOS NA HINDI NASISIYAHAN? [On the overall, how satisfied or dissatisfied are you with the present national administration? Are you VERY SATISFIED, SOMEWHAT SATISFIED, UNDECIDED IF SATISFIED OR NOT, SOMEWHAT DISSATISFIED, or VERY DISSATISFIED?] For the specific subjects, the survey questions are as follows: AANO PO KAYO NASISIYAHAN O HINDI NASISIYAHAN SA PAMAMALAKAD N KASALUKUYAN ADMINISTRASYON NASYONAL TUNKOL SA (PRORAMS OR ACTIVITIES)? MASASABI BA NINYON KAYO AY LUBOS NA NASISIYAHAN, MEDYO NASISIYAHAN, HINDI TIYAK KUN NASISIYAHAN O HINDI, MEDYO HINDI NASISIYAHAN, O LUBOS NA HINDI NASISIYAHAN?

6 17 January 2018, page 6 of 21 SWS terminology for Net Ratings: +70 and above, "excellent"; to +69, "very good"; to +49, "good"; to +29, "moderate", +9 to 9, "neutral"; 10 to 29, "poor"; 30 to 49, "bad"; 50 to 69, "very bad"; 70 and below, "execrable"]. A single-digit net satisfaction is considered not significantly different from zero. SWS considers the movement from one classification to another as either an "upgrade" or "downgrade". SWS employs its own staff for questionnaire design, sampling, fieldwork, data-processing, and analysis, and does not outsource any of its survey operations.
