One hundred days after taking the throne, King Philippe of Belgium seems to be up on a good start.
Marking his 100th day on the throne on Monday, 59 percent of Flemish people expressed confidence in the 53-year-old king, reports Wort.lu. That was a 10-point leap from the result of a survery commissioned right after he succeeded to the throne. The survey was conducted by VTM TV station.
Meanwhile, another survey conducted by RTL TV showed that the new king enjoyed the support of 79 percent of his subjects.

According to the sixty-four percent of the respondents, they were not bothered by Queen Mathilde's wish to be addressed with "Her Majesty," reports Expatica.
