MANILA, Philippines — Nine in 10 adult Filipinos are hopeful for 2022 after another year of battling a pandemic, according to a survey conducted by the Social Weather Stations.

 

The results of the survey, released Wednesday, showed that 93% of the 1,440 respondents said they are entering the New Year “with hope rather than with fear.”

 

“The difference from the 91% recorded in 2020 is not statistically significant, but both readings are below the pre-COVID-19 96% in 2019,” SWS noted.
