The latest Social Weather Stations survey put Marcos’ net satisfaction rating at minus 15 in March: a 12-point drop from minus 3 in November 2025 and the worst figure of his presidency, eclipsing the previous nadir of minus 12 recorded exactly a year earlier.
The rating derives from the gap between the percentage of 1,500 adult Filipinos surveyed who were satisfied with his performance – 33 per cent in March – and the 49 per cent who were not, including a small variance due to rounded baseline percentages.
