The same pattern was observed in his approval ratings—Balance of Luzon, 81.6 percent; National Capital Region, 72.1 percent; Visayas, 71.9 percent; and Mindanao, 70.6 percent.
 

Duterte’s trust ratings, on the other hand, were solid in her bailiwick of Mindanao, 88 percent; Visayas, 74.7 percent; Balance of Luzon, 73.6 percent; and National Capital Region, 71.7 percent.
 

Her approval ratings “followed a similar geographical distribution”—Mindanao, 82.1 percent; Visayas, 72.4 percent; Balance of Luzon, 71.5 percent; and National Capital Region, 70 percent.
 

Both chambers of Congress also received positive ratings from the public, with the Senate getting a trust rating of 83 percent and a job approval rating of 80 percent and the House of Representatives garnering a trust rating of 78 percent and a job satisfaction rating of 75 percent.
 

Dr. Paul Martinez, RPMD Global Affairs Analyst and Executive Director, promised that the organization will continue to play its role as a conduit for the "voice of the people" to leaders.

It claims that the survey has a precise margin of error at +/-1% and a confidence level of 95 percent.
