It would depend if we just met for the first time, it is a handshake for both males and females while if we had known each other for quite a while and we became pretty close, it is still a handshake for guys and "beso" for girls. "Beso" is like cheek to cheek kiss.

The usual way for us Filipinos , would be to get a hand of an elder and they bow to let their forehead touch the hands as a way of greeting or respect . Though , because some of the Filipinos grew up in the US , when they come home to visit they would kiss the elders on the cheek or just kissing cheek to cheek our elders. Then, this was adapted by some . But still , some foreigners would say , they love seeing the children do the above ..

In the past, our Chinese bow when they were meeting, but now most of us by handshake.

@hyperchi,I'm a Hindu from India.We greet others with folding hands and saying 'Namastey' or 'Namaskar' or 'Pranam.' We show our respect for our parents and elders by their feet.
