Pong Pagong First appearance 1983 Last appearance 1994 Portrayed by Deo Noveno Voiced by Deo Noveno Species Turtle Gender Male
Pong Pagong is a muppet -style character developed by the Children's Television Workshop (CTW) for the Filipino children's show Sesame , a co-production between CTW and the Philippine Children's Television Foundation (PCTF) which debuted in 1983. Pong Pagong is an anthropomorphic turtle, similar to Big Bird of Sesame Street , standing over six feet tall and towering over human co-stars and aged to be around six years old. Together with its co-muppet, Kiko Matsing , the characters were custom made in New York for Sesame .[1] Both characters were inspired from a Filipino fable , "The Monkey and the Turtle ", which was annotated to English by José Rizal in 1889.[2]
After the cancellation of Sesame in 1984 due to the cancellation by CTW of the co-production venture, both characters appeared in its 1985 replacement show, Batibot , under a license arrangement with CTW. Both characters were returned to CTW in 1994[3] and never used again.
