"We consider this jump of business optimism as a good indicator of strong business and investor confidence to the decisive leadership of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte and his competent economic team, which resulted in the easing of inflation and higher government infrastructure spending, two of the primary reasons mentioned by respondents for their upbeat outlook," sinabi ni Panelo, ngayong Sabado ng umaga.
Sinabi ng Palace official na prayoridad ni Duterte na palaguin ang ekonomiya ng bansa na may positibong epekto sa mga mamamayang Pilipino.
"Foremost in the mind of the President is to strengthen the economy that will redound to the Filipino people —to provide a comfortable life for all," ani Panelo.
"The Chief Executive is a man of action and his recent stern resolve to address the challenges that plagued the nation showed that his utmost priority is our people. His leadership style is reflected on his swift action, which is for effecting real and lasting change," dagdag niya.
