With another typhoon about to batter Metro Manila, the topic of billboards is once again in the forefront. I see it as an opportune time to post this old pic.
At first, it looks like just another in-your-face, self-serving piece of propaganda, serving the highest public servant of our land. In smaller print, it's a friendly reminder of where our road taxes go.
Nothing new, right?
Well, look closely. Its not a billboard. It's a tarpaulin banner placed on top of an official road sign for lane directions (Ayala and Cubao). It was placed there by no less than the MMDA itself (the group that's supposed to ensure motorists are directed properly). Now you know what their priorities are.
That sign was up for the longest time, until Milenyo did us motorists the kind favor of blowing it away.
