    Tondo Conspiracy of 1587-1588

    Tondo Conspiracy of 1587-1588 (known by numerous outer names such as


    the Revolt of the Lakans or the Conspiracy of the Maharlikas), was a revolt
    planned by Tagalog nobles, led by Agustin de Legazpi of Tondo and his cousin Martin
    Panga, to overthrow the Spanish government situated in the Philippines due to the
    injustices felt by the Filipinos.[1] It was territorially one of the largest conspiracies
    against the Spanish rule next to the Katipunan. It ranged from provinces near Manila all
    the way to Calamianes islands near Palawan.
    Legazpi sought help from a Japanese sea captain named Juan Gayo and asked for arms
    and warriors to fight alongside them in exchange for one-half of the tribute collected in
    the Philippines.[1] They also requested help from places such as Borneo, Laguna,
    and Batangas with a plan to assault the city of Manila and assassinate the Spaniards.
    However, their plan was discovered by the Spaniards when Magat Salamat revealed
    their plan to fellow rebel Antonio Surabao who turned out to be a traitor when he
    reported the conspiracy to the Spaniards. Consequently, the rebels associated with the
    conspiracy were all punished with some put to death and others exiled and the plot
    against the Spaniards died along with them.

    Cause for the revolt


    Numerous datus were not in favor of the Spanish rule as they had conflicting interests
    with regard to authority and freedom. An instance of such is the waning obedience of
    the slaves to the datus. This was brought about by the initiatives of the Spaniards to
    abolish slavery in hopes of shifting the slaves' allegiance from the datus to the kingly
    Spaniards. Furthermore, this elimination of slavery had institutionalized how the slaves
    were obligated to pay their tributes to the Spaniards instead of the datus. They had
    been reduced to vassalage, thus the plan of rebellion of the datus against the
    Spaniards.
    Revolt of Lakandula
    and Sulayman ( 1574)

    The Lakandula and Sulayman Revolt, also known as the Tagalog


    Revolt, was an uprising in 1574 by Lakandula and Rajah
    Sulayman in Tondo, Manila. The revolt occurred in the same year as the
    Chinese pirate Limahong attacked the palisaded yet poorly defended
    enclosure of Intramuros. This revolt was caused by losing Soliman and
    Lakandula's kingdom when they were defeated by Miguel Lopez de Legazpi
    to accept the Spanish sovereignty on the promise that they would be well-
    treated by the Spaniards and would still retain some of their royal and
    political powers. When Guido de Lavezaris replaced Legaspi as Governor
    General of the Philippines, he revoked their exemptions from paying tribute
    and confiscated their lands. Father Martin convinced Lakandula and
    Soliman to abort the revolt and promised to grant their privileges.
    Nevertheless, Soliman continued his revolt which was brutally crushed in
    1574.
    Sumuroy Revolt (1649–50)
    In the town of Palapag today in Northern Samar, Agustin Sumuroy, a Waray, and some
    of his followers rose in arms on June 1, 1649 over the polo y servicio or forced labor
    system being undertaken in Samar. This is known as the Sumuroy Revolt, named
    after Agustin Sumuroy.
    The government in Manila directed that all natives subject to the polo are not to be sent
    to places distant from their hometowns to do their forced labor. However, under orders
    of the various town alcaldes, or mayors, The Waray were being sent to the shipyards
    of Cavite to do their polo y servicio, which sparked the revolt. The local parish priest of
    Palapag was murdered and the revolt eventually spread to Mindanao, Bicol and the rest
    of the Visayas, especially in places such
    as Cebu, Masbate, Camiguin, Zamboanga, Albay, Camarines and parts of northern
    Mindanao, such as Surigao. A rebel government was successfully established in the
    mountains of Samar.
    The defeat, capture and execution of Sumuroy in June 1650 delivered a big setback to
    the revolt. His trusted co-conspirator David Dula sustained the quest for freedom with
    greater vigor but in one of a fierce battles several years later, he was wounded,
    captured and later executed in Palapag, Northern Samar by the Spaniards together with
    his seven key lieutenants.
