MANILA (Reuters) - Couples in the Philippine capital
Manila are limbering up their lips for a mass kissing
session on Valentine's Day (news - web sites) that
could snatch the coveted world record from Chile.

Mayor Lito Atienza has invited 5,000 couples to smooch
simultaneously for 10 seconds along the city's bay,
thus beating the record set by 4,445 couples just last
month in Santiago.

"We're trying to establish a world record for the most
number of couples kissing at the same time," the
mayor's spokesman, Armand Sebastian, said Thursday.

He said the mayor plans to personally boost the
attempt on the world mark by kissing his wife.

Men and women, most of them in their 20s, poured onto
a cordoned-off street in Chile's capital in January to
kiss for at least 10 seconds and smash the previous
record held by Canada.
