Lakan Dula
(December 16, 1503 – March 21, 1589)

Title: Lakan (King|Paramount Ruler),
Predecessor: Rajah Salalila (Sulayman
Dula I),
Consort: Mutya
The Old Name
of Manila was Tanah Amanillah/Tanah Manillah/Tanah Manile – The “Ex Oriente
Lux”
(According to 26th US President
Theodore Roosevelt in his speech)
The 25th President of
the United States of America, William McKinley was assassinated. Vice-President
Theodore Roosevelt, a Rough Rider, was immediately installed as the 26th
President of the United States of America. Roosevelt praised the civilization
of the Moros in Manila as better than those in Europe. He confided that Spain
forcibly occupied Tanah Manila which was not theirs: in the name of Spain and
its God. He could be referring to Istanah-Malay word for abode. Roosevelt
observed: The Manila Sultanate better
known to its neighbors as Tanah Manile was a great country, detached from the
Madjapahit upheavals and part of what the Latinos called “Ex Oriente Lux” or
Source of the Western Light. The manila country was contributing to the
intellectual progress of the world when King Philip II and his men decided to
take what was not theirs in the name of Spain and God. The Philippines was
better Europe at the time of Columbus: better fed (nourished), better clothed,
had a higher standard of living, pioneered in goldsmith artisanship in Asia and
in the world (more Ancient than China and more dimensional than Egypt), and
perhaps higher average of popular education (Salah Jubair).

Lakan Dula was a native
muslim king of Tundun (a large area covering most of what is now present-day
Metro Manila), when the Spanish colonization of the Philippine Islands had
begun. He ruled a community of Muslim people who lived north of the Pasig
River. Lakan Dula was one of three Muslim chieftains in the Manila during the
arrival of the Spanish conquistadors led by Martín de Goiti, and Juan de
Salcedo in 1570. Lakan is his official title meaning King and later baptized
Lakan Carlos Dula (it was found later by the National Historical Commission
that he was not actually baptized and did not changed his name), was the Lakan
paramount ruler of the pre-colonial Philippine Kingdom of Tondo when the
Spaniards first conquered the lands of the Pasig River delta in the 1570's. His
father is Rajah Salalila (Sulayman I) and his mother is Ysmeria Doylly. His
beloved wife is Mutya and they are blessed with several children. His
grandparents are Dayang (Lady) Kalangitan and Gat (Lord) Lontok and his brother
is Rajah Matanda (Sulayman II). Rajah Mura or Muda (Sulayman III) and Lakan
Banao Dula led a revolt known as the Sulayman Revolt of 1574 in the villages of
Navotas, taking advantage of the confusion brought about by the attacks of
Chinese pirate Limahong. This is also often referred to as the "Manila
revolt" but is sometimes referred to as the "Sulayman Revolt"
and the "Lakan Dula Revolt."
Offsprings
of Lakan Dula
He fathered at least five sons, namely: Batang Dula - only his eldest
son Batang is legally allowed to use his surname, by tradition, the rest, they
have to adopt other surnames. Lakan Dula has three legal grand children from
Batang Dula who was married to Spanish girl from the Goiti family: David Dula y
Goiti, Daba Dula y Goiti, Dola Dula y Goiti. He sent them in very far places
along sea and river routes protected by relatives because the Spaniards might
kill them to make sure that his Kingdom will not have any successor and will
not prosper. Don Dionisio Capulong (Datu of Candaba). Don Phelipe Salonga (Datu
of Pulu), Magat Salamat (Datu of Tondo), Don Martin Lakandula - who entered the
Agustinian order as a lay brother in 1590. He fathered one daughter: Doña Maria
Poloin who married Don Alonso Talabos, one of Doña Teodora Alonso's
forefathers. According to Carlos Quirino in his Rizal biography "the Great
Malayan" mentioned that one of Teodora Alonso's forefathers proudly traced
his ancestry to Lakan Banao Dula, then that makes Jose Rizal a descendant.
Known grandsons from Batang Dula the eldest: David Dula y Goiti (a
mestizo) - escaped the persecution of the descendants of Lakan Dula by settling
in Isla de Batag, Northern Samar and settled in a place now called Candawid.
David later joined the Sumuroy Revolt (1649-1650) and changed his name to David
Dulay. He was eventually executed by the Spaniards leaving his family in his
plantation. He was imprisoned by Spanish soldiers in Palapag and was executed
together with several followers. They were charged of treason with planning to
attack the Spanish settlement. Daba Dula y Goiti (a mestizo) - escaped the
persecution of the descendants of Lakan Dula was hidden to a place known today
as Candaba. Dola Dula y Goiti (a mestizo) - escaped the persecution of the
descendants of Lakan Dula was cared in a big farm known today as Candola in San
Luis, Pampanga. "Kan" is an ancient Tagalog word which means
"owned". There are other grandchildren of Lakan Dula have but we
cannot list all of them here, they are so many.
Lakan Dula wants to see all the descendants of his children. He knows
that a lot of them became patriots, but few of them became traitors. Known
great-grandson: Juan Macapagal (Datu of Arayat) – Lakan Banao Dula’s name is
written in the 1665 document. Wishing to avoid the persecution experienced by
his latter ancestors he aided the Spanish authorities in suppressing the 1660
Kapampangan Revolt of Francisco Maniago and the Pangasinan Revolt of Andres
Malong and the 1661 Ilocano Revolt. The Ilocano revolt was headed by warrior
tribes from Eastern Pangasinan, the Nozuelo and Moreno clans. His prominent
descendants of 20th century, namely: Diosdado Macapagal (9th President of the
Philippines) – father of Gloria Macapagal –Arroyo (14th President of the Philippines).
Jovito Salonga – former Philippine Senate President Gonzalo Puyat - pioneer
Filipino industrialist Gil Puyat - former Philippine Senate President Lea
Salonga - international stage celebrity.
Lakan Dula's sons and nephews were after implicated in the Revolt of the
Lakans of 1588, a conspiracy meant to overthrow Spanish that was spearheaded by
the former ruling class of the defeated Luzon Empire. His son Magat Salamat was
executed by the Spanish authorities while the rest were executed.
The offsprings from Northern Samar is his grandchild David Dula y Goiti
with his descendants are those from the children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren of: Petre; Rufina; Hilario, the father of Eleuterio Dulay,
Sr. of Laoang, Northern Samar - mayor for more than 20 years during the Marcos
Regime who died of heart ailment. Councilor Rufo Dula – was the other
descendants are those carrying the surname Dula. Offspring from Manila were the
two lines claiming the most direct descent from him: Macapagal Clan and de
Guzman Clan. Offspring from Laguna from Doña Maria Poloin only daughter of
Lakan Dula who married Don Alonso Talabos of the Alonso Clan. Offspring from
Mexico: Felipe Salonga (Chief of Polo) - exiled to Mexico and were thus one of
the very first Filipinos to settle in there.
What
is the English of Lakan Dula?
Lakan is a pre-hispanic title of the king of Tondo, which is translated
as the paramount ruler, or among all the rulers, he is the leader.
Dula on the other hand is the name of the leader. In the pre - hispanic
times, people has only one name which is his first name and surname at the same
time. This is the reason why Lakan Dula of Tondo can never be Banao Lacandola
of Lubao, Pampanga. Firstly, the latter has first name and surname which means
that it is a person that was born long after the Spaniards ruled the country as
seen by the fact that it is adopting a Spanish naming system.
Dula has an English origin. Lakan Dula was born on December 16, 1503 A.D
and died on March 21, 1589 A.D. He was the last King of Manila before the
kingdom was totally subjugated by the Spaniards and his descendants were forced
to do self-exile to escape the bloody Hispanic persecution by settling in far
flung areas within the sea and river routes. It was in Lakan Dula's era when
Britain and Spain are rivals for world power. Britain's way is to gain the
trust of native royalties all over the world by diplomacy or intermarriages and
then group these royalties into federation under its leadership. Spain's way is
through conquest and subjugation. Lakan Dula's tall and fair appearance came
from his great grandfather, Robert d’Ouilli, who has British blood, a Lord of
Manor from Oxfordshire who has a blood relation with the French Royal family
where Henry Doylly, Lord Constable, circa 1190, with a bloodline of the French
Monarchy, in the Norman civil war descended. The birth of Lakan Dula is the
early attempt of the British crown to gain the trust of the native Manila
aristocracy. It is one of the ways to slowly defeat Spain as the world power of
that time. The surname Dula/Dulay therefore came from the British Aristocracy
that somehow add color to the pre-Hispanic Kingdom of Manila.
What
is the Middle Name of Lakan Dula?
First of all, Rajah Lakan Dula is wrong. The correct one is Lakan Bunao
Dula or simply Lakan Dula. Lakan, according to British historian Henry Scott is
the official title, which means "paramount ruler", some sort of
"sultan of all sultans". Bunao is the first name, and Dula is the
surname. This is the reason why people calling him Rajah Lakan Dula or
Lakandula are either ignoramus or have a hidden agenda to steal the identity of
Lakan Dula.
When you say middle
name, you are implying that Lakan Dula fully embraced the hispanic naming
system.
If we look at the
list of ancestors of Lakan Dula, you will find the name of her mother is
Ysmeria Doylly, and since in the pre-hispanic time the name is also the
surname, then, if we apply the present system, the middle name of Lakan Bunao
Dula is Doylly.

Who
is Prince Batang Dula?
Batang Dula is the eldest son of
Lakan Bunao Dula of the Sultanate of Tanah Amanillah and Tundok. He is the heir
apparent to the sultanate, a prince, but the Sultanate was reduced to
belligerent level when the Spanish authority secretly launched a massive
liquidation order of the native aristocracy who are suspected to be secretly in
alliance with the British Royalty, from the bloodline of the Lord of Manor of the
Oxfordshire. It was in Lakan Dula's era when Britain and Spain are fighting for
world power. Britain's way is to gain the trust of native
Royalties all over the world by
diplomacy or intermarriages and then group these royalties into federation
under its leadership. Spain's way is through conquest and subjugation. Lakan
Dula's tall and fair appearance came from his great grandfather who has British
blood, a Lord of Manor from Oxfordshire. Lakan Dula is the early attempt of the
British to gain the trust of the native Manila aristocracy. Batang Dula was never
touched by the Spanish authority because he was betrothed to the daughter (some
historians say, sister), of the founder of Manila, Martin de Goiti. The
marriage of Senorita de Goiti and Batang Dula is Spain's way of coopting the
Sultanate or Lakanate. When it became apparent that the members of the native aristocracy are being secretly
liquidated, Batang Dula, with the helped of his widely respected and
influential Spanish wife Senority de
Goiti whose ancestral house is still standing in the present Intramuros, initiated the first ever diaspora
of the native aristocracy by sending them to the protection of the native
settlements along the river and sea routes like Pampanga, Pangasinan, Marikina,
Samar, Cebu, Bohol, Butuan, Leyte, Bicol, etc. Some native aristocrat were
forced to change into Spanish surnames, some changed to Hispanic native
sounding names, some used British or muslim surnames, but those who are close
relatives of the sultanate decided to use the surnames that makes them well
known in the sultanate like Sumulong (the first one to attack), Agbayani ( the
hero), Gatbonton (the caretaker), Capulong (member of the council), Manalo (
always a winner), Calungsod ( from the city), Macapagal (always busy),
Magsaysay (story teller), Aglipay (always happy), Kapunan ( the one who always
pay the bill), Pangilinan ( was given good amulets), Aguinaldo ( gift), Akonya
later Acuna ( who always shoulder problems), Salonga (good in hiding from
attacking enemies), Binay (hit by theattackers), Panganiban (very dangerous
enemy), Pangalangan (for impossible missions),
etc. The children of Batang Dula where sent to stronghold native
settlements. The eldest son, David Dula y de Goiti was sent in a faraway
settlement with the Galleon Trade route (to be very safe) and was protected by
the Sumuroy clan and the tribe of Datu Iberein in Northern Samar. He was given
a large island and coconut plantation which was later called by the natives as
Candawid (owned by David in Waray dialect). The second child Daba was entrusted
to an uncle in nearby Pampanga. She was given a large farm land which the
natives are a calling Candaba (owned by Daba). The youngest and prettier
daughter, Dola, was entrusted to a cousin, also in nearby Pampanga, and was
given a large farmland which the natives are calling Candola (owned by Dola). Dola
was eventually married to a domineering guardia civil surnamed Reyes which made
her bloodline appears later to be loyal to the Spanish authorities than to the sultanate.
Eventually, the sultanate was reduced to obscurity but the secret struggles and
desire of the natives hatched by prince Batang Dula and his Spanish wife, to be
freed from the oppressive Spanish regime, was passed on from generation to generation
which contributed to the eventual independence of the whole archipelago into
the Philippine republic. The same patriotic spirit of the descendants of Lakan
Dula and his Sultanate based in Tondo is still manifested up to the present
times, in fact, a lot Philippine presidents traced their bloodline on this particular
ancient native aristocracy.
Magat
Salamat and Batang Dula Join Lakan Malakas
Back in Manila, Fernando de Tondo
tried to convince his (and Lakan Malakas's) brothers, Magat Salamat and Batang
Dula to join him in his war against the Muslims. Magat Salamat and Batang Dula
had an extensive talk over it. De Tondo even intimidated both. Batang Dula, the
eldest son of the Lakan Dula lineage was married to the younger sister of
Martin de Goiti, which sealed a pact between Tondo and Spain. Batang Dula chose
not to take part, while Magat Salamat decided to join his older brother in
Pangasinan. The next day, Batang Dula instructed his Spanish wife to leave the
Philippines but their eldest son David Dula y Goiti remained under the care of
the tribe of Datu Iberein, because Batang Dula also decided to join Lakan
Malakas and Magat Salamat and convert to Islam. Magat Salamat remained a
Catholic, and Batang Dula chose to have Magat Abba convert him to Islam. Dula's
wife was saddened and angered by Batang Dula's departure. She did not go to
Spain but instead, while their ship was on the way to Mexico via Galleon trade
route, the mother and son requested to disembark and settle down in a nearby
island in the pacific coast of Northern Samar which was later named as Isla de
Batang (now Isla de Batag, Laoang, Northern Samar). The mother and son,
together with some trusted followers settled in a big coconut plantation which
eventually was inherited by David Dula and folks around the area calls it Kan
David (owned by David), now, it is called Candawid. Later, Senorita de Goiti
urged and encouraged Fernando de Tondo to defeat the Muslim tribes and bring
Batang Dula back. In turn, Fernando assured her of this.

Who are the
Members of the Principalia Class of the Philippine Society? Those with Native
Sounding Surnames.
As is the case of the Principalia;
those who possess surnames from Prehispanic royalty look down on the pure-bred
Criollo masses; as a bunch of opportunistic blanco peasants, with no breeding.
Those who are so proud of their European surnames fail to consider that
their ancestors only came to Latin-America or the Philippines to escape from
starvation. Even if you brandish your Limpieza de Sangre to the nth level you
will never be our equals. If you are Criollo, then you are merely commoners who
escaped from your Native land because your fathers were either criminals or
starved and poverty stricken oppurtunistas. If you are Mestizo/Mestico and have
a foreign surname; then congratulations on being the 9th bastard-son of your
rapist father.
If you are European looking and have
a native surname, then congratulations! You belong to the Principalia class and
you have royal blood in your native side and that, it was your mother who was
European (who is also noble-blooded by all accounts) she was most likely
betrothed to your Native father as part of an alliance or political pact.
And so, to celebrate our inherent
Principalia superiority...
I'm here to post pictures of the Principalia class. Rich; mixed-raced
people who have native surnames and are the scions of royalty; they are
survivors and have preserved the dynasty through the ages and they're even 10x
more attractive than your inbred blanco ass.

Hahaha she looks Italian but both her
mother's surname and her father's surname are native Filipino. Alumisin? Tupas?
Lol those are native family names not European, but she looks European anyway.

(Xcept Marc Pingris is superior
because he's Principalia; David Boreanaz is just a starved Criollo peasant whose
clan fled Europe as beggars or criminals.)
I'm guessing that there are also
Latin-American equivalents to the Principalia class. I saw one guy post a rich
dude with the surname Montezuma. I think he's a powerful politician.
Esteban
Moctezuma. From the Aztec Emperor, Moctezuma. Interesting!! They look so much
lighter than the average Mexican. Lol. They're not Mexican, they're mostly
Filipino. I only gave one example of a Mexican Principalia. http://static.azteca.com/crop/crop.php?width=580&height=&img=http://static.azteca.com/imagenes/2013/39/esteban-1785237.jpg&coordinates=50,50.
Esteban Monctezuma who (I think) claims descent from emperor Monctezuma. I can
hardly find any Mexican principalia since Mexico seemed to be swamped either by
the Mestizo rape masses or by the Criollo peasant horde. Do you know any more
Principalia? (Powerful people with native surnames with descent from
Pre-colonial royalty) asides from Monctezuma? [They are often white due to
their White mothers]
We'll.
You can obviously see that we're even richer than the Blanco and we have royal
blood to boot. Whereas, you're just a bunch of peasants. This is clear proof
that the Principalia is inherently superior to the blanco, massa.
Here's a picture of President Gloria
Macapagal having a toast with Juan Carlos the King of Spain.
https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzUXi8al4jAWUtyeWmlgZVNetl7mVNIkYIcKEGvMvh5Spzq9yLyG5guThRMj5uKqK7dSEuobt1uNhknBD14JLAYc_Qm9WRAnFwVMLtGqoiM21-mZCoT6SWTN1BtGcZXaBR_-YaLiZxU8SF/s320/Gloria_Juancarlos.jpg
Her family; the Macapagal family are
direct descendants of the monarch of the Kingdom of Tondo, Lakan Dula. She has
Aztec ancestry through Martin de Goiti's half-Spanish and half Aztec daughter
betrothed to Lakan Dula's son; Batang Dula. They were lodged as the Principalia
class for most of the Spanish period. And now their dynasty has blosomed again
in Gloria's father; Diosdado Macapagal the previous president of the
Philippines and in her as the next President. She is already practically a
Queen.
She comes from a royal dynasty
older than the Spanish era and once again her clan blossoms as she became the
ruler by being President of the Republic.
Unlike the run-of-the mill
Criollo, the Principalia can have a toast with the King of Spain and be
considered equals. Belonging to dynasties that are just as old as one another.
And she Queen in her own right and by her own royal blood even though she is a
President of the Republic.
Whereas, you will, as always be, a
peasant from the merchant class. Which by the way; according to the Hindu Caste
system (Which some of us had practiced, Pre-Spain esp. in the Rajahnates of
Butuan and Cebu) was the lower class compared to that of the leader class.
http://www.zawaj.com/askbilqis/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/caste-system.jpg
We are Kshatriyas, Meanwhile, you will always
be Vaisyas till the end of your life. Oh no. I just did it. I proved that
Creoles are inferior to the Principalia. Hahaha I just turned your Casta system
upside-down. So much for your much vaunted Europoid racial purity.
A lot of the people in the OP
still look clearly admixed. We'll duh. They're not Criollo (A pure European
settler. The commoner peasant horde) they’re principalia, patrilineal
descendants of Prehispanic royalty. Their white ancestries are because of their
mothers. I'm just outlining the fact that the Criollo masses may think they are
richer and are superior with their pure blood but they have to accept that fact
that they can only be of the merchant class and that they are secretly jealous
of the Principalia which have old dynastic links to Precolonial Kings.
He could be a Monctezuma but he
looks so much lighter than the average Mexican. Yeah I noticed that too. I made
this thread here because it's even more pronounced in the Philippines than in
Mexico. Everyone with Spanish surnames tend to be dark and Mullato looking
while those with the Native surnames; Victor Basa, Marc Pingris or Candris
Alumsin-Tupas are the ones who are as white as a feather.
