Over half or 57 percent of 2,400 respondents selected "job creation, livelihood generation and financial literacy" as issues that should be outlined in candidates' platforms.
"Investment-led economic growth" was selected by 44 percent of respondents, followed by "fighting corruption" at 41 percent.
The Sept. 6 to 13 survey, commissioned by Stratbase ADR Institute, allowed respondents to select up to three issues.
Other issues included in the survey were quality health care (33 percent), quality education (29 percent), peace and order (24 percent), wider internet access (19 percent), building various renewable energy sources (18 percent), reliable mass transportation (17 percent) and illegal drugs (15 percent).
Reacting to the survey results, Stratbase founder Dindo Manhit noted the importance of investment-led growth for sustained economic development.
"When we prioritize investments, we not only fuel sustainable growth but also build a foundation that allows us to recover swiftly from disruptions, empowering us to face future challenges with confidence," he said.
Candidates should prioritize fighting corruption in their platforms, he noted.
"Voters want to see a commitment to integrity and accountability from those who aim to serve and a clear stance on anti-corruption is essential for building public trust," Manhit said.
Corrupt government officials must be held accountable, according to 91 percent of respondents.
