On second thoughts, it might be a Spittlebug, back-to-front mimic.

I agree with MartinL. This is a colourful Leafhopper and I think it is a Back-to-front mimic. Unfortunately, I can't yet ID this to species or even genus level, but I will send a suggestion based on the little I do know about this insect.

@ Jolly Ibañez: sorry i don't have any other picture :( @ martini: a friend of mine suggested it's a weevil. now i'm confused. @ williefromwi: thank you! :)

This is possibly one of these type of colorful leafhoppers. http://naturecloseups.com/posts/subjects/leafhoppers

Hi Rian, do you have any other picture of this spotting from different angle? That would help in identifying this spotting.
