MANILA, Philippines - Sen. Francis Escudero filed a bill seeking to criminalize the naming of government projects and infrastructure after public officials or any other person.
"You see basic services such as waiting sheds, ambulances and even trash bins tagged with a politician's name. This has got to stop if taxpayers' money is used to build these," said Escudero in a statement.
The bill proposes penalties of 1-year imprisonment and fines of up to P1 million depending on the cost of the government project concerned. Ryan Chua, ABS-CBN News

Politicians should always be HUMBLE not HUM"BOG" !!!
I think it is about time that people in the Govt sector.. most especially our elected govt officials conduct regular Retreats and Reflect and strive to be GOOD most of the time while on duty..

this is music to my ears Mr Chizzy, mga senators and honorable congressmen, mahiya naman kayo sa aming mga taxpayers at ipasa agad ito once ma file na?? I used to see signboards that say, "This is where your taxes go" . .
