    SUBJECT BANNING NAMES OR INITIALS AND/OR IMAGES OR PICTURES OF


    GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS IN BILLBOARDS AND SIGNAGES OF
    GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS, PROJECTS AND PROPERTIES

    The practice of putting up billboards or signages bearing the names, initials and
    images of government officials on government programs and projects has been noticeably
    abused and misused by some public officials for their per-sonal interests and has taken the
    credit away from the taxpayers who are the ones paying for such programs or projects
    through their tax payment.

    In pursuit of the Presidents directive issued during the 4th Cabinet Meeting held on
    August 5, 2010, where he directed all members of the Cabinet and other government
    instrumentalities to refrain from associating the President's personality and identity in their
    programs and projects, and pursuant to this Departments thrust to uphold good local
    governance, the practice of putting up of billboards and signages and other information
    materials bearing the names, initials or pictures of government personalities on all
    government projects, and government properties (firetrucks, ambulances, vehicles, etc.) are
    hereby prohibited.

    Towards this end, all Local Chief Executives are hereby directed to revisit all
    government projects and properties and to ensure that this policy is strictly observed.

    Thus, information .on government projects should be Limited to the name of the
    project and location, contractor, the date when it started and the projects completion date.
    Further, government projects or properties (i.e., buildings, Y"1a1ting sheds; markers, etc.) and
    official vehicles must only contain the official seal or name of the local government unit.
    Contact details, such as but not limited to .. the website address or email address of the local
    government unit, may also be allowed. The words "FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY' should likewise
    be marked on government vehicles.

    All DILG Regional Directors and the ARMM Regional Governor are likewise directed to
    cause the immediate and widest dissemination of this Memorandum Circular to all local
    government units within their regional assignments, and to monitor compliance of this
    Memorandum Circular.
