The most important thing for him, is that he retains the confidence of his own people. His approval ratings are in the 80's so I think it's fair to say the people think he's doing a good job. I've been a couple of times this year and there seems to be plenty of building work going on and money being spent on roads etc. We have a couple of family members who've found jobs in the last 6 months, not great jobs, but work nonetheless.
People have been moaning for years about politicians and corruption in the Philippines so they voted for a different way and it's only fair he gets a chance.
