SWS: No change in most Pinoys’ lives
A recent Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey indicates that 42% of Filipinos perceive no change in their quality of life compared to the previous year.
The survey, conducted in June 2025 with 1,200 respondents, found that 35% experienced an improved quality of life, while 23% reported a decline.
This finding comes despite recent economic factors, including low inflation reaching a six-year low of 0.9% in July 2025.
The Department of Finance attributed the relief, especially for poorer families, to falling food prices, particularly for rice.
