12/11/2007 | 08:41 PM

 Most Filipinos believe that President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is the “most corrupt (president) in the history of the Philippines," according to results of a survey done by Pulse Asia from October 20 to 31.

The survey showed that 42 percent of Filipinos thought Mrs Arroyo was the “most corrupt" chief executive in the history of the Philippines since the Marcos administration, while former President Corazon Aquino was the least corrupt with only 1 percent of respondents thinking that she engaged in shady deals during her term.

Second to President Arroyo was the late strongman Ferdinand Marcos with 35 percent. Joseph Estrada, who was ousted in January 2001 through a popular revolt was third with 16 percent, followed by Fidel Ramos, the country’s 12th president, with 5 percent.

In terms of location, the perception of Arroyo as the most corrupt president prevailed in Metro Manila (50 percent), and in Luzon (50 percent).

In terms of socio-economic class, 50 percent of respondents from the elite ABC Class and 43 percent from Class D thought that Mrs Arroyo was the most corrupt chief executive.

But in Mindanao (50 percent) and in Visayas (47 percent), Marcos was the most corrupt leader. Class E also believed that Marcos was the most corrupt president.

Pulse Asia said 66 percent of the respondents believed that Aquino was the least corrupt president. The sentiment was shared by Filipinos in all geographical areas and socioeconomic classes.

Forty five percent of Filipinos thought that the Arroyo administration was plagued with the “most intense allegations" of corruption, followed by the Marcos administration with 31 percent.

Third was the short-lived Estrada administration with 14 percent, followed by the Ramos administration with 7 percent.

Only 1 percent thought that the Aquino administration was the most corrupt.

The perception that the Arroyo administration was the most corrupt was high in Metro Manila (56 percent), in Luzon (50 percent) and among Class ABC (50 percent),and Class D (47 percent) respondents.

Those who thought that the Marcos regime was the most corrupt came from Mindanao (45 percent), and Class E (40 percent).

Meanwhile, respondents from the Visayas were torn between Arroyo (39 percent) and Marcos (38 percent).

The survey, with 1,200 respondents, had a margin of error of plus or minus 6 percent.

Pulse Asia said they conducted the survey at the height of the issues on the alleged payoff of congressmen and local officials in Malacañang, the renewed calls for Arroyo’s resignation and the planned revival of impeachment moves against her, the Glorietta blast, the continuing investigations on the broadband deal, the rift between Arroyo and Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr, the granting of pardon to Estrada, the holding of barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections, and the increasing prices of oil products. - GMANews.TV

I give respect to Aquino. Her presidency was rivetted with multiple coup attempts.

Behind the facade of a weak widow-president in her nostalgic and iconic yellow dress, was the mind and will of an iron woman. Who garnished respect by even her political rivals.

In the end, she proved to be an able president, despite her inexperience in politics.
She, ultimately, walked the murky waters of the political puzzle, and did bring some kind of stability to the Philippines, from which future presidents could build upon.

I have much respect for Marcos, as well as Aquino. The struggle for law and order, and the necessity in maintaining democracy in that search for law and order. In a developing Asiatic State.
