The post of Facebook user Julius Ceasar Medes went viral for pointing this out. In his caption he said, “The “HOW HARD DID AGING HIT YOU" challenge with THE iconic TRISHA BONOAN-DAVID!”
Some of the netizens agreed with the post, saying that the same photo has been around Manila through the years. Some were curious of the current appearance of Bonoan-David.

However, in a report by Interaksyon, Rep. Bonoan-David violated a policy for politicians. As per Commission on Audit’s Circular No. 2013-004, “picture, image, motto, logo, color motif, initials or other symbol or graphical representation associated with the top leadership of the project proponent or implementing agency/unit/office, on Signboards, is considered unnecessary.”
This includes members of the Congress and local officials whose projects are funded by the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF). Those who will be caught will undergo the administrative disciplinary action stated in the Government Auditing Code of the Philippines.
Senator Manny Pacquiao has filed the Anti-Epal bill which prohibits government officials to name government projects after them and/or claiming credit through signage. However, it has not been signed into law yet.
