in terms of transparency, accountability, good governance,...

Cory. She was a patriotic leader, in the sense that during the time of her reign, she was very much loved by the countrymen. And though it may be true that the Philippines didn't exactly prosper under her leadership, she was transparent and clearly did her best. Besides, nothing she could have done at the time would have helped the Philippines reach the top because she was at the time working to get the Philippines back in shape after the chaos of the Marcos regimen.
And since people loved her, they followed her, and though not all of her projects were successful, they were at least really THERE.
Gloria is ambiguous. We never know what she is really doing, and the Garci thing didn't really help much with her popularity. She is also widely believed to be a chronic liar by most.
The only thing likable about Gloria is her stand on improving housing benefits. I myself have seen how the GSIS, for one, had lowered their interest rates to help accomodate the poor people who otherwise would have been kicked out of their homes. But then again, the housing help was started by Noli De Castro.
All in all, I think both tried (and in GMA's case, are trying) to do something for the country. It's just that some aspects of the Philippines are so buried under that it would be hard for any one preseident to help us improve economically. The only thing that could be of comfort is that the president is transparent about what is going on in the governance, and GMA has been a bit evasive. And in terms of transparency and approval, Cory will still be better.

Cory.
Gloria is an economist, and that is why she is able to manage the economy well. But that doesn't mean she is a good president. A good president should do much much more than improve the economy - - - she needs to be seen as a leader. Cory was seen as a leader. GMA is a manager. GMA, therefore, is better suited to be a cabinet secretary, running NEDA, DTI, DBM, or any finance related function.
I am not anti or pro GMA or Cory. I think this is an analysis as pure as a laboratory analysis can get.

I think CORY. She did try to improve the Phils but was hampered with the pro Marcos allies.
I do think Gloria is also trying but her transparency and accountability are somewhat suspect.

Half the people here haven't lived that long, and I haven't even been here then... but nobody could be as bad as Ate Glue, so I'd say Cory was lots better.

Cory. She's not a great president but until now many believe her than they believe our current president.

Cory, because of what she had to face after the Marcos regime.

I'd hate to say this but Cory was the lesser evil... yeah, all she ever did was pray and wished her troubles away.
