Summary of Presidency

President Arroyo was named the 14th president of the Philippines during the People Power II, January 20, 2001 in Edsa when former President Joseph Estrada was forced out of office because of allegations of plunder and corruption. The president faced a lot of challenges in her early presidency which includes an unstable economy and protests by the supporters of Estrada. Another one of her problems include the ongoing battle between the government and the rebels. Despite the problems and issues regarding her administration, she has also done a lot for the Philippines including lifting the Philippines out of its financial crisis.

In 2004, she won the elections and was elected to a full term presidency until 2010. During her inaugural speech, she vowed to create 10 million jobs in the next six years, balance the budget of the Philippines, improve tax collection through computerization, provide cheap medicine for the poor and unite the country.

Until now, she has been arguably the most unpopular president of the Philippines. This is because of her numerous unanswered issues and controversies like the Hello Garci scandal, expensive dinners during her visit to the United States, and many more.
