is SB sign and his team an exemption???

I believe that there is a  20-year-old ordinance banning the display of any material promoting a politician, and has been tearing down billboards and banners with a political color. 


But the campaign seems to be exempting the mayor, Feliciano "Sonny" Belmonte Jr., and his politician-daughter Joy Belmonte-Alimurong, whose Christimas season banners last December show their names and faces to passing city residents and motorists. 


Since they have declared Joy Belmonte's candidacy last year, they started to do campaign by hanging large holiday banner  on the facade of the Quezon City hall, with the words "Happy holidays for a Joyful and Blissful New year." Noticeable on the banner was the prominence of the letters J, O, Y, and B. 


A fact that is obvious to city residents: that large billboards also display the letters “S" and “B" (for “serbisyong bayan") in prominent red fonts. “SB" are also the initials of Mayor Sonny Belmonte.


Isn't it so unfair to their other political contenders that they are using Sonny Belmonte's authority for their campaign, thus to let the people know that Quezon city is owned by the belmontes???
