Trudeau, who arrived at 1:43 p.m at Clark International Airport, was about to board his official car when he stopped by the crowd of dancing children, who were part of the welcome ceremony.

The children, as well as some members of the Asean organizing committee, swarmed the leader in return as he grooved into the band music.

Before approaching the youngsters, he waved at the crowd and said “Mabuhay!”

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern also did the same as she arrived minutes earlier before Trudeau. /je
