MANILA, Philippines - President Benigno Aquino III is no longer the most approved and most trusted top official after suffering the biggest ratings decline among the five highest government executives, according to the new Pulse Asia survey released on Thursday.
Results of the March 2015 survey showed that Aquino is now behind Senate President Franklin Drilon and Vice President Jejomar Binay, who saw slight changes in their ratings.
Four months ago, Aquino was the most approved and most trusted government executive.
"President Aquino experiences significant changes in his performance and trust ratings between November 2014 and March 2015; the other top government officials of the country register minimal movements in their national ratings," Pulse Asia said.
Drilon's approval rating increased to 49 percent from 47 percent in November while his trust rating also went up to 44 percent from 42 percent.
Binay's approval score went up from 45 percent to 46 percent while his trust rating fell from 44 percent to 42 percent.
