A kiss by Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on a married woman's lips during an official event has sparked outrage.
The incident took place with a Filipino woman on an official visit in South Korea, and was denounced as part of his "perverted way" of taunting female critics.
The 73-year-old Duterte, who has been branded a misogynist, dismissed the kiss as a "gimmick" to entertain supporters at a meet-and-greet event in Seoul.
Social media was abuzz with photos and videos of Duterte on stage before a crowd of Filipinos on Sunday night, when he asked an audience member to kiss him in exchange for a book he was handing out.
