The 2011 National Comparative Survey on Good Local Governance is a follow-up on the 2009 National Survey on Good Local Governance done by Social Weather Stations. The objective is to obtain a broader set of data to set the agenda for local government reforms. The study features a 63-item focusing on citizen perception of the quality of local government services, trust rating of local officials and institutions, public-private partnerships, citizen participation, citizen perception of corruption in local governments, the Full Disclosure Policy, Citizen's Charter, and citizen perception of the Department of the Interior and Local Government. The survey covers a nationwide (except National Capital Region) sample of 1,200 household head-respondents plus an over sample of 300 household head-respondents in Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).
