President Marcos explained that he is not concerned about the dip in his approval ratings as he said that lowering the price of essential goods in the market was the real measurement of his administration's success.

Marcos said this after the latest Pulse Asia Survey showed that his approval rating fell to 65 percent in September from 80 percent in June.

In his latest vlog, the President stressed that he is more concerned about the movement of prices of basic goods in the market than his ratings.

“Katotohanan niyan, hindi masyado natin tinitignan ang survey number (The reality is I don't look at the survey numbers too much)," he said.

"Ang tinitingnan natin kung talaga bang bumababa ang presyo ng bigas at kung talaga bang umaabot ang supply ng bigas sa lahat ng ating mga mamayan (What we're looking at is if the price of rice is really going down and if it is reaching Filipinos)," he added.

According to Marcos, this was the real measurement of his administration's success.

“Iyan ang tunay na panukat kung talagang tama ang ating ginagawa at nakikita naman natin sa resulta (That's the real test if we're doing the right thing and we're seeing results)," he said.

President Marcos is firm that all government efforts are geared towards improving the lives of the Filipino people as envisioned in the "Bagong Pilipinas" governance, which is centered on the welfare of the people.

“Mga kababayan, ginagawa natin ang lahat upang masiguro ang tuloy-tuloy na pag-istabilisa at pagbaba ng presyo ng bigas sa merkado (My fellowmen, we'redoing everything to ensure the steady stabilization and decrease of price of rice in the market)," he said.

"Walang ibang sukat sa ating panunungkulan ang tumutumbas sa makita ngayon kung komportable at maginhawa ang tao (No other rating can match seeing people living comfortably)," he added.
