A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe..., police said.
Local politicians, teenaged students and women with veils covering their faces packed the main square in Marawi in the southern Philippines, some raising their fists in the air as a Charlie Hebdo poster was burned.
What had happened in La Belle France, the Charlie Hebdo killing, is a moral lesson for the world to respect any kind of religion, especially the religion of Islam, organizers said in a statement released during the three-hour rally.
Freedom of expression does not extend to insulting the noble and the greatest Prophet of Allah.
A group calling itself Boses ng Masa, or Voice of the Masses organized the rally, which attracted about 1,500 people, Marawi police officer Esmail Biso told AFP.
He said non-government organizations behind the group.
Twelve people including eight Charlie Hebdo cartoonists and journalists and two coppers were killed last week after bully boyz struck the magazines Gay Paree office, in an attack that has sparked outrage worldwide.
The attacks triggered giant rallies in support of Charlie Hebdos victims and the right to publish images of reverent figures.
The protest in the Philippines was one of first reported worldwide since the violence to express outrage at Charlie Hebdo.
The protesters carried streamers in with the words You are Charlie written in French, in response to the I am Charlie cry of those who condemned the attack.
One of the streamers read: La Belle France must apologize, while another read: You mock our prophet, now you want an apology?
Moslems are a minority in the Philippines, with most living in remote southern regions they regard as their ancestral homeland.
