Is SWS "Excellent" Rating For PRRD Not Just Meant To Flatter Him?

-
SWS Survey says "Excellent" rating for President Duterte.
What are the bases?
Did the survey consider all aspects?


But the Corruption Perception Index published by Transparency International reveals that corruption in the Philippines has worsened under the current administration?

Did SWS also look into the corruption issue?

Would such an extremely impressive or perfectly high rating make the President feel comfortable? Perhaps, the President just wants to hear a fair and reasonable report on his administration.

While it is correct that he may have succeeded in some of his commitments for the betterment of our country, he may have fallen short on other aspects. He is not perfect, he surely knows that. He even honestly admitted that he failed on his promise to end corruption in government. That he alone cannot stop corruption. That is why he calls upon the Filipino people to help him in his war against corruption. But the only sad thing is that when it comes to corruption issues against his close allies like BIR commissioner Caesar Rivera Dulay, the President seems to just ignore it. Dulay is accused of being involved in the anomalous settlement of Cosmos Bottling Corporation's (Cosmos) P3.76B tax liabilities for only P51M, and Del Monte Philippines's (Del Monte) P8.7 billion tax liabilities for only P65M. These two issues can readily be searched online.

Did the SWS make a research on the corruption issues against Dulay involving gargantuan amounts of unaccounted tax revenues?

Is SWS "excellent" rating for PRRD not just meant to flatter him?

Othello Dalanon, the former BIR Director who was sacked for reporting BIR DULAY CORRUPTION to the President, claims, in his incessant socmed postings, that PRRD tolerates his friend Dulay's corruption.

VAT IN THE PHILIPPINES The VAT system in the Philippines took effect on 1Jan1988 by virtue of the then President Cory Aquino’s Executive Order (EO) No. 273, the law adopting the VAT as implemented by RR No. 05-87 at the rate of ten percent (10%) on all taxable transactions. The tax rate was increased to twelve percent (12%) starting 1Feb2006 by virtue of RA No. 9337 as implemented by RR No. 16-2005 as amended by RR No. 04-07. VAT is an indirect tax and the amount of tax may be shifted to or passed on to the buyer, transferee, or lessee of goods, properties or services. It is a tax on consumption of goods, services or other dealings involving the same. It forms a significant portion of consumers expenses. It is a “tax credit method” wherein the Input VAT paid or incurred by a VAT-registered entity is creditable against the Output VAT which it shifts to or passes on to another VAT-registered entity or buyer-end-user. In other words, Output VAT minus Input VAT. Under the sa...
