Rodrigo Duterte, Kim Jong-un impersonators cause wild scenes in Hong Kong at fast-food restaurant and church
- The men impersonating the Philippines president and North Korean leader caused a frenzy at Filipino fast-food restaurant Jollibee on Sunday
- They visited areas packed with hundreds of Southeast Asian domestic workers on their day off
Scenes of hysteria swept Hong Kong Island on Sunday when a man impersonating the Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte paid the city an unexpected visit.
Dressed in a crisp, white traditional barong tagalog shirt with black trousers and sporting the Presidents’ trademark utilitarian haircut, the 57-year-old drew excited crowds as he greeted the public, which included hundreds of Southeast Asian domestic workers gathered in Central on their day off.
Onlookers cheered as the fake president, who goes by Cresencio Extreme, polished off a leg of meat and recited some of Duterte’s profanity-laden, anti-drug rhetoric, which has seen the President draw both controversy and praise in the Philippines.
As a crowd pressed in tightly, Cresencio stood up for a signature Duterte soapbox speech: “When I arrived at Hong Kong airport, I didn’t see any beautiful ladies, but now I realise that Jollibee is where they are all hidden.”
