Controlling price inflation in the country remains the top national concern among Filipino adults, according to the latest “Ulat ng Bayan” survey released by Pulse Asia on Friday.
The survey, conducted from June 17 to June 24, found that 72 percent of Filipinos consider increases in the prices of basic commodities should be immediately addressed by the national administration.
It is the only issue, out of the 17 listed by the polling firm, that is regarded as an urgent national concern by the majority of Filipinos.
Increasing workers’ pay came in second at 44 percent, while about a third cited reducing poverty (32 percent) and creating more jobs (30 percent) as their major concerns.
