Talk:Lakandula
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Based on this unique article, it is strongly possible that Lakan Dula of Tondo and Lacandola of Lubao are totally different persons. First proof: Philippine history would say that Lakan Dula of Tondo is a Muslim, this unique article said that this guy Lacandola is a pagan, big difference. Second proof: Lakan Dula of Tondo is a fighter to the end, he is even referred to as Gat Dula, etc. This Lacandola of Lubao is a Spanish collaborator, according to this article and its something that the legitimate descendants of Lakan Dula of Tondo will not accept without a fight.Third proof: take note of the differences in the spelling: Lakan Dula is with "k" and "u".Lacandola is with "c" and "o". Fourth proof: the Spanish alphabet doesnt have letter "K" but alibata has, so, Lakan Dula is native.On the other hand, Lacandola uses "c" which is hispanic, so, they could be referring on two totally different persons in a very different time. Fifth proof, Lakan Dula is consistent with the pre hispanic history of name system: official title (Lakan) and single name (Dula), and they are separated. We dont have surnames the pre-hispanic era. The Lacandola guy is saying that that Lacandola is already its full name, without any title. All in all, we suggest that let the historical Lakan Dula of Tondo flourished and let that certain Lacandola dude of Lubao exist too.If its a fiction, then, let it be. They are differrent and there is no point of linking them.However,if the artcile would say that Lacandola is only an adopted name because the person is a descendant of Lakan Dula, and they are afraid of hispanic prosecution that is why they hid his identity, thats sound more logical and historical too. But the article is not saying so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.53.100.187 (talk) 01:39, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
My Lolo is from Lubao. He said that the father of President Dadong can write fictions and short stories. One day, that neighborhood writer noticed that his middle name is Lacandola, a very popular surname among Filipinos, just like Gatdula, so, he dicided to write a fiction about it. When I read the story in the Article Page, it is very similar to the fiction written by that father of President Dadong, probably written while his wife is doing laundry for of her neighbors. Well, my lolo said that the neihgborhood, of course know that its only a fiction or tall tales. Anyway, lets give due respect to our heroes by separating the truths from fictions. And, may I call all my provincemate,lets support Gov. Among Panlilio in his struggle for good government...maybe he should be the next president so that our next president is another cabalen.Dennis Regala.202.86.204.114 (talk) 07:41, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sumpa ni Lakan Dula
The curse will not effect on President Arroyo because she is not a descendant of Lakan Dula of Tondo, a Muslim but of Lacandola of Lubao, a pagan, based on a short story written by her grandfather. This explains the fact why she cant come up with the citation as required by Wikipedia community. Linda Cunanan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.106.150.232 (talk) 14:59, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] National Archives
The Philippines National Archives has been unable to provide verifiable and authenticated documents to prove the claim that the Macapagals are related in any way to Lakan Dula. Any such relation is invented history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockjock810 (talk • contribs) 10:23, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
