MANILA, Philippines – More Filipinos disapprove of how the Marcos government is reining in inflation, according to a survey conducted by Pulse Asia Research, Incorporated in September, or around the same time that government price caps on rice took effect.
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.
This is a substantial difference from the results of the last survey held in June, when 31% disapproved and 37% approved of government response to inflation – disapproval went up by 19 percentage points while public approval plunged by 15 percentage points in September.
This survey was conducted shortly after President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., who also serves as the agriculture chief, imposed price caps on rice – a policy that reaped criticism from economists and sectoral groups, and even surprised Marcos’ economic team.
