According to the latest Cadem survey, Chileans believe that the country “is on the wrong track” in terms of security and the inflationary crisis, which experts would associate with a constant feeling of pessimism on the part of the citizenry.

The latest Cadem survey revealed that 71% of those polled believe Chile “is on the wrong track in all aspects”, whether political, economic, or social.

Hand in hand with 68% of disapproval towards the figure of President Gabriel Boric, the lowest figure since he took office.

The survey highlighted the inflationary crisis afflicting the country and an increase in the perception of insecurity.

Among the causes that most justify this feeling of pessimism, the survey highlighted the inflationary crisis afflicting the country and an increase in the perception of insecurity among Chileans.

The economist William Díaz alluded to certain projects being carried out by the Executive that are not in tune with the citizens’ demands and do not respond to the basic problems.

About 75% of the people surveyed said they stopped going to certain places for fear of what might happen to them.

It responds to another of the major factors for which Chileans complain about the lack of policies.

The crime prevention consultant, Sydney Houston, referred to the announcement of the Minister of the Interior, Carolina Tohá, regarding the National Security Agreement.

From parliament, PS deputy Marcos Ilabaca and RN deputy Miguel Mellado presented their views on what the government should do on the one hand and what it has not done during all this time.

52% of the population feels pessimistic about the country’s future, which had risen to the highest level since January 2015, when this measurement began to be recorded.
