David Goiti Dula is the eldest son of Batang Dula and a
mysterious Spaniard by the name of Senorita de Goiti. Batang Dula is the eldest
son of Lakan Bunao Dula of Tondo. Batang Dula, with the help of his Spanish
wife presided what is now historically known as the "diaspora of the native
nobility". After the death of Lakan Dula, the Spanish government initiated
consolidation efforts in Manila and eventually, in the whole archipelago.
“Aside from Magat Salamat, who became the nominal but not ruling rajah of
Manila upon the demise of Rajah Sulayman lll, and Batang Dula who was married
to the sister of de Goiti, Lakan Dula’s three other sons were Don Dionisio
Capulong, Don Phelipe Salonga, the Datu of Pulu and among those exiled to
Mexico, and Don Martin Lakan Dula who entered the Augustinian Order as a lay
brother in 1590” (Carating, 2014, p.36).
Meantime, the natives were forced to adopt Spanish surnames. Natives who
are blood related or loyal to Lakan Dula were harassed and some of them are
murdered. They are suspected as being close to the British Royalty, the arch
rival of Spain in the world power of that time. As the eldest son of Lakan
Dula, Batang Dula initiated resistance of the native population led by the
second son of Lakan Dula, Magat Salamat. It is a royal tradition that the second
son is more warlike than the eldest, the heir of the throne. But when the
native resistance was slowly being neutralized by the strong Spanish forces in
Manila, Batang Dula started to deploy and hide his children and relatives to
native settlements outside of Manila as far as Pampanga, La Union, Cagayan
Valley, Butuan, Lake Sebu, Northern Samar, Palawan, Bulacan, Marikina, Iloilo,
Antipolo, Pangasinan, and Zamboanga using the friendly Chinese merchant ships.
The three children of Batang Dula where hidden under the care of local
warriors. David Goiti Dula was hidden in Candawid, Laoang, Northern Samar under
the protection of the warrior Sumuroy family. His son adopted the name David
Dulay. A daughter of Batang Dula by the name of Daba Goiti Dula, was hidden in
a nearby plantation now known as Candaba and protected by the Capulong warrior
family. She was hidden as Daba Capulong. The youngest daughter Dola Goiti Dula
was hidden in what is now known as Candola, San Luis Pampanga and was put under
the care of a stronghold of relatives. She took an assumed name of Dola Goiti
Lacandola. Eventually, the plan of Batang Dula to save the bloodline became
successful. Today, descendants of Lakan Dula can be found in most poblacions
all over the country residing in bahay na bato. An article in a highly conservative site of
prominent Filipinos mentioned in passing some descendants who survived the
Spanish persecution, one of them is Ceferino Rivas Dulay of Northern Samar who
went back to Tondo to recapture his heritage and eventually settled in Marikina
Valley as the katiwala of the Tuason/Cacho family who owned and later developed
the Hacienda Mariquina, into the present-day Marikina City. “The Tioco family was a very rich and
generous family from Old Tondo. They owned numerous fishing boats in Tondo and
Malabon. Siblings Balbino Tioco and Romana Tioco were illustrious citizens and
famous Tondo benefactors of the 19th century.Balbino’s son Maximiano was
kidnapped in the late 19th century and ransomed for 3 “kaings” of gold.
Maximiano was married to a spanish mestiza Marciana Félix (same Félix family as
Joji Félix Velarde and Conchita Félix wife of Felipe Calderón of the Malolos
Constitution).Maximiano married Teodorica Ylo (The Cabangis family are also
descended from the Ylo’s) They bore 5 children, Nemesio, Salvador, “Beot”,
Guadalupe (married to Don Eduardo Barretto), Consuelo (married to Dr Rufino
Mendoza, son of Don Isabelo Mendoza de Villablanca, a direct descendant of the
spaniard Don Benito Mendoza, first gobernadorcillo of Mariquina in 1787.
Benito’s descendant Juana Mendoza Cerbito married Ceferino Dulay, a patriarch
of the Rajah Lakan Dula/Dulay Clan. Long after the family had left Old Tondo
for the plush villages of Makati and other parts of Manila, there remains Calle
Romana* in honor of Romana Tioco, and Calle Tioco* in honor of Balbino and
Romana, two personages of the same family in gratitude for their inexhaustible
generosity to Tondo (Daluyan, 2010)." The original plan of the “diaspora
of the native aristocracy” is to keep the descendants safe, gather, and
consolidate forces outside of Manila and attack Manila on a given time. But
Sumuroy, a loyal henchman from the farthest end of the Kingdom of Tondo in
Northern Samar, who was to lead the recapturing of Manila, eventually died in a
battle with the Spaniards, so David Dulay was forced to take openly the
leadership position of the native forces from a mere financier of the revolt
into an actual leader of the armed struggle. His leadership took some time and
had expanded the rebellion to nearby provinces. But on a very special mission
to gain control of a Spanish detachment in nearby Palapag to consolidate his
base, David was wounded and captured. He
was eventually executed together with his seven trusted men. David Dulay is now
known in history as the first mestizo martyr of the Philippine quest for
independence. After his death, the resistance of the natives intensified in
different places of the country led by
personalities with native sounding surnames like Manga, Sakay, Kudarat,
Dagohoy, Aginaldo, Dagohoy, Kiram, Silang, Malong, etc (Project Gutenberg.
World Library Foundation).

Northern Samar
Capital: Catarman
No. of towns: 24
Land area: 3,497.9 sq. km.
Location:
Bounded on the north by Philippine Sea, on the east by the
Eastern Samar, Samar Sea on the west, and Western Samar and Samar Sea on the
south.
Overview:
Northern Samar is a province of the Philippines located in
the Eastern Visayas region. Its capital is Catarman and is located at the
northern portion of the island of Samar. Bordering the province to the south
are the provinces of Samar and Eastern Samar. To the northwest, across the San
Bernardino Strait is Sorsogon; to the east is the Philippine Sea and to the
west is Samar Sea. Most people speak Norte Samarnon, a variation of
Waray-Waray, though Cebuano is also widely understood, being spoken in the
municipality of San Isidro and the island municipalities of San Antonio and San
Vicente. A third language Inabaknon is spoken in the island of Capul. Norte Samarnon usually is further sub
classified into Balicuatro, Central and Pacific speakers.
Northern Samar is subdivided into two (2) congressional
districts, 24 towns or municipalities, and 569 barangays.

Northern Samar is where the Sumuroy Rebellion of 1649-1650
led by the Waray hero Juan Ponce Sumuroy first began. One of the trusted
coconspirators of Sumuroy, the son of
David Dula y Goiti, sustained the Filipino quest for motherland in a
greater vigor. He was however wounded in a battle, was captured and later was
executed in Palapag, Northern Samar by the Spaniards together with his seven
key lieutenants. They were accused of masterminding several attacks on Spanish
detachments. The place where David came from was named later as Candawid (Kan
David) in Isla De Batag, Laoang, Northern Samar. Some of David's descendants
changed their surnames to Dulay to avoid Spanish prosecutions. Some maintained
their surname Dula, which up to these days is the source of minor internal
frictions among some descendants of David Dula y Goiti in Laoang, Northern
Samar accusing each side as "sigbinan", a native waray folklore which
originated in Isla de Batag, which connotes "a family secretly keeping
bear-like creatures", which are being fed with all kinds of meat,
sometimes, including flesh of dead Spanish Guardia Civil. Several famous
Northern Samarenos are tracing their ancestry among the seven co-conspirators
executed with David Dula y Goiti in Palapag, Northern Samar. Two of them are
the great grandfather of the Daza and the Lucero of Northern Samar.
Most of the towns are situated along the northern coast
facing the San Bernardino Strait. In the late 16th century, the strait was part
of the galleon trade route of the Spaniards between Manila and Acapulco. A
royal port was established in the cove of Palapag, a town east of the capital,
where the trade vessels were repaired by experienced native shipbuilders. In
the mid-17th century, many of these Samareños migrated to Cavite after they had
been recruited by the Spanish authorities to work at the new shipyard there.
Many Caviteños may therefore trace their roots to this now sleepy coastal town.
The only evidence of its busy maritime past is a tall, lonely stone-tower used
as a lookout for invading Moslem pirates (http://www.dar.gov.ph).
The Romualdezes of Leyte Consider David Dula y Goiti of
Candawid, Laoang Samar as one of their Clan Heroes
Daniel Zialcita
Romualdez (September 11, 1907 – March 22, 1965) was a Filipino politician who
served as Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Philippines from 1957
to 1962.
He was named after
his paternal grandfather, Daniel Romualdez, of Pandacan, Manila and former
owner of the Malacañang Gardens, the huge expanse of land dedicated to
entertaining guests of the Philippine presidents. Another namesake is a first
cousin once removed, Daniel Gomez Romualdez, the New York architect and son of
former ambassador and governor Benjamin Trinidad Romualdez (brother of Imelda
Marcos) and that of the son of Froilan Romualdez and Josefina Cerbo named Daniel
Cerbo Romualdez.
Daniel
"Danieling" Romualdez was born in Tolosa, Leyte. His father, Miguel,
once served as an assemblyman for Leyte and mayor of the city of Manila.[2] His
great-grandfather was involved in the Sumoroy Revolt but narrowly escaped Spanish
execution when he was allowed by David Dulay to visit his ailing mother. Dulay
and his seven trusted men were later executed in Palapag, Northern Samar and
were buried in unmarked graves without Roman Catholic rites. Superstitions
existed that a Romualdez was to die that day in Palapag. More than fifty years
later, Philippine Supreme Court Associate Justice Norberto Romuáldez,
Danieling's famous uncle and the man who made their surname distinguished in
society, would suddenly die of a heart attack in Palapag, hometown of his
second wife Beatriz, daughter of the parish priest Fray Salustiano Buz, who
insisted on campaigning at the grassroots level for the Philippine Senate
elections when he was almost guaranteed to win on account of his nationwide reputation.
Romualdez enrolled
at the University of Santo Tomas in Sampaloc, Manila. He obtained his law
degree in 1931 (https://www.revolvy.com).

The Philippines
will be part of Borneo and Brunei will be the capital if the Spaniards did not
colonize the Philippines.
Then we will be as
rich as Brunei and with Arabia and Persia, the joint superpowers instead of the
US.
Whoever holds the Philippine isles rules the world.

From slaves to
masters, masters to slaves. It's a cycle.
The Jews were
slaves, then. Now, they are the masters with the Rothschild and the rest of
banker families on top of the Financial cartel controlling the fast collapsing
parasitic Global monetary system.
After 400 yrs of
colonial servitude, after China had finally surpassed the US, the Philippines
and the rest of the SEA nations will be the next Economic Powerhouse just like
in the Glorious Srivijayan days.

Spain had many
things to offer to the Native Filipinos like the Conquistador Goiti offered his
sister to the King of Manila for marriage that is why Spain and the Kingdom of
Manila had an alliance and they also bore a son David Dula y Goiti.
I think the real
reason Goiti offered her sister was in order to partake the Gold or wealth of
the Lakan Dula clan. The native principalias had fabulous wealth which the
Spaniards lusted for.
The Spaniards
massacred almost all of David Dulay's kins in the failed revolt of the lakans
or the tondo conspiracy. That's why the remaining blood relatives had to kiss
the asses of their colonial masters in order that their lineage would survive
and never to be uprooted. Now, some people and historians would label them the
Lakan Dula Clan(Don Macapagal et al) as traitors to their native brethren because
of their loyalty to Mother Spain by fighting against Don Maniago of Pampanga,
Don Malong of Pangasinan, the Ilocano and Zambal rebels, the fugitive Limahong
and aiding the Spaniards in the massacre of the Chinese and in repelling the
Dutch and the British invasions, etc..
The heirs of Lakan Dula

In 1587, Magat
Salamat, one of the children of Lakan Dula, and Augustin de Legazpi, Lakan
Dula's nephew, and the lords of the neighboring areas of Tondo, Pandacan,
Marikina, Candaba, Navotas and Bulacan were executed for secretly conspiring to
overthrow the Spanish colonizers. Stories were told that Magat Salamat's
descendants settled in Hagonoy, Bulacan and many of his descendants spread from
this area.David Dula y Goiti, a grandson of Lakan Dula with a Spanish mother
escaped the persecution of the descendants of Lakan Dula by settling in Isla de
Batag, Northern Samar and settled in the place now called Candawid (Kan David).
Due to hatred for the Spaniards, he dropped the Goiti in his surname and
adopted a new name David Dulay. He was eventually caught by the Guardia Civil
based in Palapag and was executed together with seven followers. They were
charged with planning to attack the Spanish detachment.[16]
