unprecedented health crisis, has unraveled the populist rhetoric that once made Rodrigo Duterte invincible.
President Duterte now has less than nine months remaining in his term. The administration’s politics of appearance has been outed as just that—all about appearances. The superficiality of this populist strategy, which in the early days was used to persecute critics and defend erring officials, has been exposed.Gut economic concerns have persistently been on top of the minds of Filipinos. The Sept. 6-11, 2021 Pulse Asia survey on “most urgent national concerns” demonstrates this.
Stratbase also commissioned a Pulse Asia survey on June 7–16, 2021, to determine the most important traits or characteristics a national candidate should possess. “Political integrity” took top priority. Other traits raised included “Has concern for the poor, pro-poor” , “Not corrupt” , “Trustworthy and honest” , “Has a good platform and can give solutions to the problems of the country” , “Fights anomalies in the government” , “Untarnished name and reputation” , and “Fulfills promises” .
The administration’s approval ratings in the September 2021 survey showed significant declines in a broad range of issues: “controlling inflation” ; “fighting graft and corruption in government” ; “controlling the spread of COVID-19” ; “increasing the pay of workers” ; “reducing the poverty of many Filipinos” ; “creating jobs” ; and “providing assistance/subsidy to those who lost their livelihood and jobs because of the COVID-19 pandemic” .
