What is the Sumpa of Lakan Dula?

This is found in an obscure discussion page of Wikipedia. The way I see it, this discussion is among the descendants of Lakan Dula, otherwise, they will not bother to go to that Wikipedia topic. I removed the names of those involeve in the discussion so that our understanding of the topic will be more objective. More or less, this will tell us if there is really such a curse: "We have been hearing of some legends about Lakan Dula from our old folks. Is it probable that we can somehow incorporate some of the legends that we been hearing about him in this article? Like, maybe, if its possible, then, we can incorporate the "Candola of Lubao" tales, written by the grandfather of President Gloria Arroyo. Here is another legend that we can also probably include together with "Lacandola of Lubao" tales, the "Sumpa ni Lakan Dula"legend. SUMPA NI LAKAN DULA President Erap was supported by the Dulay Clan of Marikina Valley when he run for senator and later vice president in 1992, until the time he run for President and won. But after winning the presidency, Erap neglected the CLAN. Erap was booted out of office and was convicted. President Gloria Arroyo was supported by the Dulay Clan of Marikina Valley, when she run for senator, vice president and in EDSA Dos against Erap. But after she assumed the presidency, she neglected the CLAN. Will GMA be booted out also, and be convicted of crimes later? MAY SUMPA KAYA SI LAKAN DULA? We know that this is still a legend that has to be accepted through time, and I think it will not pass the Wikipedia standard same way as the "Candola of Lubao" tales. As this article is being written, the fulfillment of "SUMPA NI LAKAN DULA" is presently unfolding in the Philippines today. Filipinos from all walks of life are demanding the resignation of President Arroyo for a series of corruption charges. Is the Sumpa of Lakan Dula now working on President Arroyo after it worked on President Erap? Is the "Sumpa" just coincidental or it is rooted on the psyche of Filipinos and written in the destiny of this nation? We find it quite interesting. The Curse of Lakan Dula is I think true. Like today, Former Senate President Jovito Salonga, a descendant of Lakan Dula from Pasig filed a plunder complaint against President Gloria Arroyo. The late Ceferino Dulay, the 4th generation leader of Dulay Clan of Marikina is a good friend of President Diosdado Macapagal. During the second term of Marcos, the Dulay Clan of Marikina became eventually supporters of Marcos. Sofronio, the 5th generation leader of the clan even joined the UP Vanguard. Yet, when Marcos started to be abusive, the whole Dulay Clan of Marikina started to fight Marcos. Sofronio, then a young professional, organized the "Kramer Junta" and joined EDSA 1. Maybe we can restate the "SUMPA NI LAKAN DULA" this way: if you are a leader trusted by Lakan Dula thru his descendants, serve the people well, dont steal and be honest, because if you violated the Lakan Dula trust, you will earn the curse of Lakan Dula thru the wrath of his descendants. This sounds logical and doable, and historical too. In fact, it is happening right now on President Gloria Arroyo who is claiming to be a descendant of Lakan Dula herself, a claim which the Wikipedia community had been questioning by asking some proofs or citations. The elders of the descendants of Lakan Dula of Tondo, Philipine Vice President Teofisto Guingona and Philippine Senate President Jovito Salonga will make sure that the "SUMPA NI LAKAN DULA" will apply on both President Joseph Estrada and President Gloria Arroyo. To all detractors of PGMA in this discussion, why dont you give her a break. The Sumpa of Lakan Dula will not work on PGMA because she is not a descendant of Lakan Dula of Tondo but a descendant of Candola of Lubao, a spanish collaborator. Please read the original "La Candola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia", which is coming from the Macapagal family itself. Candola is a place in San Luis, Pampanga. Can someone make a link between La Candola of Lubao and Candola of San Luis. Maybe Candola of Lubao is named after Candola of San Luis.Candola is a Spanish word. What is the meaning of that word in English? Traitor? Fake? What?. "

Lakan Dula descendants are self sustaining, independent, sometimes secretive and clannish and are turning out to be mestizo looking because they usually are married to mestizo or pure Chinese or Spanish from generation to generation, a marriage tradition which they are still practicing even today. For instance, if you survey the wives and husbands of the Dulay Clan of Northern Samar, most of them are married to Chinese mestizos and Mestizas. One of the examples is Governor Madeleine Mendoza (who herself is Spanish looking) and who is a direct descendant of Petre Dulay of Candawid (Kan David, or David Dula y Goiti). She is married to Mayor Hector Ong, brother of Congressman Emil Ong. Another example is the present leader of the Dulay Clan of Marikina who is married to a Chinese mestiza... which explained the fact that the immediate reigning family of the Dulay Clan of Marikina that stays in the clan ancestral house in the poblacion are all chinitos and chinitas. The future generations of the descendants of Lakan Dula may appear to look very different from the description of Lakan Dula as based on the accounts of the earlier descendants. These future descendants, as time passes by, may even look more Caucasians and Chinese than natives, due to their tradition of marriage, but they have to look back to the appearance of Lakan Dula as described above, and feel proud that this is the way the aboriginal native Filipinos look once upon a time.Lakan Dula has a French and British blood but his descendants may have a varying appearance. History would talk of the three Lakan Dula grandchildren with Spanish mother: David, Daba and Dola.Due to intense Spanish prosecution of the native aristocracy, Lakan Dula decided to send these three grandchildren to safe places where the Lakan Dula settlement are very strong. David was send to an entry point to the Kingdom of Manila in the galleon trade route - Candawid, Isla de Batag, Laoang Northern Samar. Daba was sent to Candaba in Pampanga and Dola was sent to Candola, San Luis, Pampanga. David was given a big tract of coconut plantation with households and armed followers. Daba was given a big tract of land and Dola was given large farmland. Daba and Dola were given also households but without armed followers, because they are girls and because their sanctuaries are near Tondo.The descendants of David Dula y Goiti are more Hispanic and Chinese looking because of its ability to marry into rich Hispanic and Chinese families in the Laoang - Catubig - Palapag towns in Northern Samar through time, were the old Spanish ships repair establishments catering to ships from galleon trade was located (Palapag), as well as the government capital (Catubig) and commercial capital (Laoang) of Samar Island were found. An example of the descendants of David Dula y Goiti are former Northern Samar Governor Madeilene Mendoza Ong who has a white Spanish complexion, and San Roque, Marikina SK Kagawad Sofronio Corral Dulay ll who has a tall, white and Hispanic - Chinese looks.The descendants of Daba Dula y Goiti are found mostly in Candaba , Pampanga, the original farmland given by Lakan Dula to Daba. To describe the descendants of Daba is to look at the appearance of the Capulongs, the direct descendants.Because Daba is a girl, the Dula surname was totally erased through time and replaced with descendants with totally different surnames. The Daba descendants, described through the Capulongs, have high noses but not so white skin.The descendants of Dola Dula y Goiti are found in Candola, San Luis, Pampanga, the big tract of land inherited by Dola from the Kingdom of Lakan Dula. But because Dola is a girl, her descendants carried different surnames like Macapagal, etc. A lot of them moved out of Candola and settled in other towns, like in Lubao. To describe the appearance of the descendants of Dola is to see former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo: short, dark but with nice nose.The Daba and the Dola descendants are currently in a state of disharmony. The Daba descendants are proud patriots but the Dola descendants are proud Spanish collaborators. There traitorship and Spanish collaborations are proudly written in their own family history. Daba and Dola, being girls lost their Dula surnames as well as the hereditary clan leadership from within the Daba Clan and the Dola Clan. As of this writing, there is no identified clan leaders within the Daba Clan and Dola Clan, based on heredity. It will take sometime, if it will ever happen, to trace the lineage of the first born sons of Daba and Dola where the traditional hereditary leaders should come. What will happen are some people who will claim direct ancestry from the two, but will never be able to identify their hereditary leaders and their link to those claiming to be leaders.How_does_rajah_lakandula_look_like

What are the marriage traditions of the descendants of Lakan Dula?

The Kingdom of Lakan Dula was flourishing before the Spaniards came. It is based in what is now known as Intramuros in Manila. Lakan, according to respected Filipino historians, is a title of nobility during the pre- hispanic era which means "paramount ruler" and Dula is the name of the paramount ruler of the kingdom. The kingdom has some marriages practices that seem to be revolving around the concept of mixed marriages."In mixed marriages, one free and one slave, the children's class matched the parent's class. If there was only one child, the child would be the class of the father. If two children are born, the first matches the father and the second is like the mother. If three children, the third child is half free and half slave."What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaEven subsequent literatures, the concept of mixed marriages seem to be the prevailing in the Kingdom of Lakan Dula. This was even captured in the legend of Mt. Makiling: "As time passed, the love affair between Gat Dula and Maria came to be known to Gat Panahon, Maria's father. Gat Panahon was angry. Even Dayang Makiling, Maria's mother, was distressed that her only daughter was in love with a mortal. Maria was then forbidden to go down to the earth. Her parents even took away from Maria the power of enchantment which enabled a deity to look and act like an ordinary mortal. But even though Maria and Gat Dula could no longer meet physically, their love endured. Maria continued to watch over Gat Dula. During a battle with the army of Lakan Bunto, the ruler of a neighboring kingdom who invaded the kingdom of Bay, Gat Dula did not suffer a single wound due to the support of Maria's enchantment. Unfortunately, Gat Dula's inability to see Maria caused him to fall ill and die. Maria asked the gods to give her the soul of Gat Dula and her request was granted."What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaWhen the Spaniards came, they basically initiated two strategies to downplay the native aristocracy: by marginalizing them which led Lakan Dula descendants to go to far flung places in the archipelago under assumed names; and secondly, by inter marrying the remaining native nobilities of Intramuros with Spanish ladies and men. This strategy was documented in several literatures such as a "play which tells a little of the early history of the Philippines during the 16th century when the Spaniards were slowly gaining ground on Philippine land in the European race for colonies. The history was retold in the backdrop of a love story (part true/part myth) between the daughter of the Filipino revolutionary hero Lakan Dula, and Captain Juan de Salcedo, grandson of the Governor-general of Manila, Miguel Lopez de Legazpi." What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaThis strategy of the Spaniards seems to be in line, incidentally, with the pre - hispanic marriage traditions of the descendants of Lakan Dula: racial intermarriages. "Manila, its capital city, was populated by about 300 male adults if we are to include the 200 or more soldiers quartered among the civilians and natives. To this figure should be added the members of the religious community who numbered about 50. The 80-odd civilians were all connected with the colonial government. 50 were married to Spanish women and a few others to natives. There were 15 widows, 8 or 10 girls of marriageable age and some children".What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaThis marriage tradition is valued even by the Filipino nobility that moved out of Intramuros at the height of the Spanish prosecutions. "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 placed now called Candawid (Kan David).What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaThis tradition even went into the life of ordinary citizens of Manila. "Tagalog ang tawag ng mga tao sa sarili, at kahawig sila ng mga Malay sa kilos at anyo, kahit kaiba ang wika, na kasing-tamis din nila sa pananalita. Nag-iba lamang sila sa mga natutunang gawi; sa Manila, malaganap ang ugnayan ng mga tao at mga Intsik kaya naging mestizo na sila."What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaThis racial inter marriages tradition being practice by the descendants of Lakan Dula, especially those who have clear lineage to the pre Hispanic King, and are conscious of their tribal history, are still alive even these days. The 5th generation hereditary leader of the Dulay Clan of Marikina Valley, for instance, is married to a Chinese mestiza. Even President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo herself is married to a member of a Spanish speaking Tuason family. Former Northern Samar Governor Maddeiline Mendoza Ong, a direct descendant of Petre Dulay of Candawid, Isla de Batag who herself is Spanish mestiza looking, is married to former Mayor Hector Ong, from a Chinese family that includes Congressman Emil Ong. This ancient tribal marriage tradition of the descendants of Lakan Dula, which is still being practice today, partly explains why the descendants of today are Chinese or Spanish mestizo looking and are very far from the appearance of the traditional Filipino natives. But make no mistake about them; they are as nationalistic as anyone could be despite of their foreign looks, that is why a lot of them are into public service.What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_Dulahttp://mkleskas.13.forumer.com/a/Philippine-history-from-the-fma-warriors-perspective_post11-45.HTMLWhat_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_Dulahttp://members.tripod.com/magicrealms/folklore/maria.HTMLWhat_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_DulaWhat_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_Dulahttp://ca.supremecourt.gov.pH/index.php?action=mnuactual_contents&ap=j40100What_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_Dulahttp://yawiki.org/proc/Rajah_LakandulaWhat_are_the_marriage_traditions_of_the_descendants_of_Lakan_Dulahttp://members.AOL.com/ernestojlaput/main.htm

Looks of Lakan Dula & his DescendantsThe appearance of Lakan Dula, can be described through the standard methods that well known historians around the world usually resort to, by describing his known closest descendant, in this case, David Dula y Goiti, and by asking old folks about it. Lakan Dula is taller than the average native of his times, maybe 5'6 to 5'8 in height. He is not very dark, he is "kayumangging kaligatan", which is slightly fairer than the average native. Due to his fondness to the sea and rivers (Tagalog came from Taga - ilog, from the river), he has a dry skin on his legs which appeared to be some sort of "scales", which is like the skin of some Europeans during winter (scally), a characteristics which some of his descendants at present are still carrying. He has a high cheek bone, a protrudding forehead and a nose which is "pugilist" - high, but the bridge is not well pronounced. He has a straight hair, but appears to be a wavy on his slightly longer hair. His eyes is deep set, slightly brown, and not too chinky. His eyebrows are not thick. His teeth are well arranged. He appears to be lanky and not very mascular but he is not overweight. He is a silent type but very passionate. He is extremely bright in mannerisms, and smart and wise in battles. He is a litttle bit hairy on his legs and arms, just enough hair, and has a well shaven and not thick "bigote". Although, commercial artists renditions of his appearance in the postcards sold in popular bookstores in the Philippines illustrates him as clean shaven. His descendants are self sustaining, independent, sometimes secretive and clannish and are turning out to be mestizo looking because they ussually are married to mestiza or pure Chinese or Spanish from generation to generation, a marriage tradition which they are still practicing even today. For instance, if you survey the wives and husbands of the Dulay Clan of Northern Samar, most of them are married to Chinese mestizos and mestizas. One of the examples is Governnor Madeilline Mendoza(who herself is Spanish mestiza looking) and who is a direct descendant of Petre Dulay of Candawid (Kan David, or David Dula y Goiti). She is married to Mayor Hector Ong, brother of Congressman Emil Ong. Another example is the present leader of the Dulay Clan of Marikina who is married to a Chinese mestiza... which explained the fact that the immediate reigning family of the Dulay Clan of Marikina that stays in the clan ancestral house in the poblacion are all chinitos and chinitas. The future generations of the descendants of Lakan Dula may appear to look very different from the description of Lakan Dula as based on the accounts of the earlier descendants. These future descendants, as time passes by, may even look more caucasians and Chinese than natives, due to their tradition of marriage, but they have to look back to the appearance of Lakan Dula as described above, and feel proud that this is the way the archeological native Filipinos look once upon a time.
