A couple of topics that stood out were: the satisfaction ratings of prominent government officials, trust in international institutions and foreign countries, support for the Bangsamoro Organic Law, and opinions on the West Philippine Sea. His presentation was then reacted upon by Mr. Coco Alcuaz, Executive Director of the Makati Business Club and Dr. Jayeel Cornelio, Director of the Development Studies Program at the Ateneo de Manila University. Mr. Alcuaz had a more business perspective while Dr. Cornelio looked at the results from a more sociological and regional viewpoint.
