Kiko Matsing

PERFORMER	Sammy Badon

Kiko Matsing is a gorilla who appeared on Sesame, the Filipino co-production of Sesame Street. He lives in an abandoned jeepney, and is fond of bananas.

The character's left arm was manipulated by Toots Javellana.

After Sesame ended its run, Kiko, along with Pong Pagong, crossed over to the more successful follow-up series Batibot, produced without the involvement of CTW. Both Kiko and Pong were eventually dropped from Batibot due to licensing issues with CTW.
