Survey: Haresco top-performing lawmaker in Western Visayas

AKLAN Second District Representative Teodorico Haresco was named top performer in the list of lawmakers from Western Visayas with an average approval rate of 58 percent.

Deputy House Speaker Loren Legarda of the lone district of Antique ranked second with 57 percent approval rating.

Also in the list are Negros Occidental Third District Representative Francisco Benitez with 55 percent rating, and Representative Raul Tupaz of Iloilo Fifth District, with 53 percent rating.

The ratings were based on an independent survey conducted by the RP-Mission and Development Foundation Inc. last August 1-10, 2021.

According to the survey firm, the expectations and duties of members of Congress are extensive, encompassing several roles: representation, legislation, and constituent service.

The House of Representatives Public Satisfaction Rating conducted by RP-Mission and Development Foundation Inc. is an independent, non-commissioned nationwide survey and performed per district in every region with a total of 10,000 respondents.

The respondents were asked "Do you approve or disapprove of the way [name of District Representative] is handling his/her job as congressman/congresswoman?"

Each district representative was assessed by their own constituents and ranked based on the ratings received. (SunStar Philippines)
