Singson issued Department Order 37 directing implementing offices of the agency namely Regional, District Engineering and Project Management Offices to adhere to the revised DPWH Standard Project Billboard format banning the use of name or image of any personages including the President in the project billboard. Secretary Singson said that the revised DPWH Project Billboard is also in accordance with the instruction of President Benigno Simeon C. Aquino III which ordering all government agencies not to use his name or image on government programs and projects. Based on newspaper reports, P-NOY has ordered his Cabinet and heads of government agencies and Government Owned and Controlled Corporations (GOCCs) to refrain from associating the President's personality and identity in their programs and projects and advised not to put up tarpaulins, billboards, and other propaganda materials bearing his name and image. Under the DPWH modified format, project billboards containing name of project and location, name of contractor, date started contract completion date, contract cost, construction consultant, implementing office (of the DPWH), and source of fund shall be installed in all project sites by the concerned implementing offices of DPWH for the information and guidance of the taxpaying public. DPWH standard billboard measuring 4 feet x 8 feet using ½ inch marine plywood or tarpaulin posted on 3/16 inch marine plywood are installed at beginning and end of road, bridge and flood control projects and in front of project site for building projects like school building, multi-purpose center, and government offices. For road projects with length of 10 kilometers or more, billboard are required to be installed at every 5 kilometers interval. The general public are also encouraged to report to DPWH any concern or complaint about the infrastructure project by sending message to DPWH TEXT 2920 or call the hotline number 536-3477 and 302-9196.

Singson is just expanding the instructions so he issued DO 37, so sa tanan na DPWH projects , dapat walay name/picture of politicians

ang katong Senate Bill ni Miriam or ni Escudero, public na signs na gyud so comprehensive na gyud
