Ma's report card

The Research, Development and Evaluation Commission of the Executive Yuan announced a poll it took to get an evaluation on the satisfaction rate for Ma's government after his first 3 months in office. Satisfaction for Ma stands at 47%, and 41% for the Premier and 44% for the cabinet.

Not exactly a fantastic start.

Poll was taken on the 14th and 15th, just as the Chen scandal was breaking. So it's possible that gave Ma some sort of bounce in relation to memories of the last government.
