00:48Jr. two years into his term.

00:57with Marcos' five percentage points higher than in March, 15% are undecided, and 28%

01:03are dissatisfied.

01:05Among geographical areas, the president gets the highest satisfaction rating in Balans,

01:09Luzon, followed by Metro Manila and Visayas.

01:13While he got the lowest score in Mindanao at 46%, this is a 15% point jump from his

01:1831% score in March.

01:21Here are the other key survey findings shared by SWS.

01:27The 2nd Quarter 2024 Social Weather Survey used face-to-face interviews of 1,500 adults

01:33nationwide held from June 23 to July 1.

01:39The International Olympic Committee on Thursday, August 1, defends its decision to allow two

01:43female boxers to compete at the Paris Olympics despite a gender row.

01:48It says the pair were facing quote-unquote aggression because of an arbitrary decision.

01:53Algerian Iman Khalif, who won her bout over Italian Angela Carini in 46 seconds, and Taiwan's

01:59double world champion Lin Yu-ting, who is fighting on Friday, are cleared to compete

02:03in the Olympics.

02:04Khalif's lightning-quick win over the Italian, who decided to pull out after a barrage of

02:10punches by the Algerian, piles more pressure on the IOC for allowing them to box in Paris.

02:16Both fighters were disqualified at the 2023 World Championships after failing International

02:21Boxing Association eligibility rules preventing athletes with male XY chromosomes competing

02:26in women's events.

02:28The IOC says the rules of eligibility in Paris were based on those of the Tokyo Games in

02:332021 and cannot be changed during a competition.

02:39Simone Biles clinches her 6th Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games on Thursday, August

02:441 in the Women's All-Around event.

02:47The number one all-around gymnast reasserts her status three years after she withdrew

02:52from the same final at the Tokyo Games.

02:55In a tight race between her and Brazil's Rebeca Andrade, Biles trails in third place after

02:59a flawed performance on the uneven bars.

03:03But in the end, she executes an electrifying routine to secure the gold with a total of

03:0759.131 points, just 1.199 points ahead of her Brazilian rival.

03:14Biles captures her second gold medal of the Paris Games and her second all-around Olympic

03:18title.

03:19She claimed the team gold earlier this week.

03:22Biles is the most decorated gymnast of all time.

03:28After seven days of grueling competition, Team Philippines is finally within grasp of

03:32elusive Olympic medals.

03:35Tokyo silver medalist Carlo Paalam is looking to secure at least a bronze on Saturday should

03:40he prevail in a tough slog against fourth-seeded Australian Charlie Sr.

03:45Rower Joanne Delgaco gives her final burst of energy Friday, finishing 20th overall out

03:50of 32.

03:52Olympic debutant swimmer Jarod Hatch meanwhile goes home, placing 36th in the men's 100-meter

03:57butterfly heats.

03:59All eyes will soon be on world number two pole vaulter EJ Obiena, arguably the Philippines'

04:04surest remaining medal bet as he kicks off his podium or bust campaign this weekend.
