Ref: Maharlika Philippines Sovereignty

His Excellency, President Rodrigo R. Duterte:

Asalamu Alaikum, Warahmatulahi, Wabarakatuhu
On the previous communications to your Excellency, substantiating His
Highness stand and Public Status as the Maharlika Religious sovereign Head of
Royal Houses/State, is addressing his Highness faithful and loving people to
assert, exhort and to promulgate what has been ordained for Philippines 2000
(Maharlika Assets), the Treaty of Versailles and the Treaty of Paris of December
10, 1898.

As President of the Republic of the Philippines, Your Excellencys authority and

empowerment to change and/or revert our present form of government to the
once Great Nation Again, we once was, Maharlika.
The Philippines in the 1200, was Maharlika Strings of Royal houses-Sultanates
also known as the Muslim National Archipelago. Priory from 600 to 1200, was
Maharlika Sri Vigaya. Maharlika was already having its own Government system
outdating countries as the United Kingdom and the United States of America.
Maharlika's ruling system was ABSOLUTE MONARCHY system of government.
The second root race of humanity was the Maharlika Zamals, the free thinking
people whereby the physical" Adam" originally came forth. The Zamals evolved
into Lemurians who ventured out in populating Asia and Europe prior to the
cosmic collission that occurred that splitted the earth in half creating the Pacific
Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. whereby later sense was endowed bringing forth
the Adam and Eve that we know. We all came from one family racial Stock. The
family Monarchical Head and authority was in the Head of the family and
succession was not necessarily passed down to the eldest offspring, however, as
by implied delegated succession. over time, Maharlikans are distant relatives to
each other.
Succession continues through hereditary succession. The succession is passing of
obligation to oversee the well-being of people as a whole. The Successor is the
representative and Symbol of its peoples' dignity.
Evolution that later led to 1764 whereby England issued the Royal Protocol
Decree 01-4 to the Maharlikan King Luisung Tagean-Tallano declaring the
Spanish Colonized territories of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao as belonging to
the said Noble King, the latter ho sought for help from England of Spanish
atrocities in the said territories. Which Spain transposed said decree into the
Titulo De Compra after being paid to have left Maharlika Philippines paid by the

Royal Family of the said King, as frontlined by the United States in the Treaty of
Paris on December 10, 1898.
In Oct. 3, 1904, the United States in turn incorporated the said Titulo with the
Torrens System making the said Titulo as Original Certificate of Title or OCT 01-4
in the name of the said Royal Family.
Evidence of hereditary succession and of ownership in page 7 and 8 of the 1966
Revised Edition of the "Registration of Land Titles and Deeds" by Narciso Pea.

PAGE 7, Except the term fee simple, all the rest of the above terminologies are rarely in use in the
Philippines.

PAGE 8 - By fee simple, is meant an absolute title; it is an absolute estate in perpetuity. It is where
title to the land is conferred upon a man and his heirs absolutely and without any limitation imposed
upon the estate.

So if the ownership of the Philippine Archipelago was passed through hereditary

succession, who is the successor? There was an expropriation case filed in court

to transfer the ownership of the Philippine Archipelago in favor of the national

government by way of eminent domain because of the strong belief of the
national government that the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano left no heir. The
right of eminent domain is the right of the government to acquire
private properties for public use. Expropriation is a legal process of
acquiring a private property.

Land Registration Case / Civil Case 3957-P

The case expropriating the ownership of the Philippine Archipelago is the
LRC/CC 3957-P. Since the government exercised its' "right of eminent
domain" or "right to acquire private property for public use", in
expropriating the Original Certificate of Title. T-01-4, it is already an

admission that ownership of the entire Philippine Archipelago is

under private rights.

PAGE 192 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

PAGE 193 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

Inside the LRC/C.C. 3957-P, we will find evidences that the government is
exercising its' right to acquire the OCT No. T-01-4, which is the Fee Simple Title
for the whole Philippine Archipelago.

PAGE 204 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

PAGE 222 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

PAGE 260 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

PAGE 266 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

PAGE 309 of the LRC/C.C. 3957-P Decision with Compromise Agreement

Based on the records of the Decision with Compromise Agreement,

there was an expropriation of the OCT No. T-01-4 where the Republic
of the Philippines itself committed land grabbing against the lawful
owner of the land, by exerting its' right of eminent domain using
fraudulent evidence from fraudulent sources.
CA-G.R. SP No. 70014
The CA-G.R. SP No. 70014 is the petition of the Republic of the Philippines to
annul all decisions, writs, orders, etc., that were released by the Pasay Court
because its' Motion for Reconsideration was blocked by the orders released
by the Pasay Court on July 7, 1997 and July 11, 2001.

CA-G.R. SP No. 70014 (OSG Petition)

The decision of the CA-G.R. SP No. 70014 is as follows:

While the Republic of the Philippines failed in asserting its' right of eminent
domain in the LRC/CC 3957-P, CA-G.R. SP No. 70014 has decided that the
reconstitution proceeding in LRC/CC 3957-P and annulled all decisions, writs,
orders, etc. that emanated from the case.
The claim of the Republic of the Philippines to the Philippine Territory is
therefore void to begin with. The Article 1, the National Territory described in the
1987 Constitution is also void, making the Republic of the Philippines a
government operating without territorial rights, and therefore DE FACTO. This
is the reason why the Republic of the Philippines cannot defend its
claim on the Spratly islands and North Borneo- Sabah, even though
these parcels of lands are integral part of the Philippine Archipelago.

If

the Plaintiff, the Republic of the Philippines and all other defendants was not
awarded the entitlement to the OCT T-01-4 being expropriated, who then is the
owner? We can find the clue in Rule 68 of the Revised Rules of Court in the
Philippines.

The one awarded with the Judgment of the expropriation case is then the owner.
On this particular expropriation, the Judgment was not awarded to the plaintiff,
it was awarded to a third person. Take note, not anyone can secure a copy of
the Entry of Judgment of case if there is no order from the Court.

Rule 136 Court Record and General Duties of Clerks and Stenographers

So now we know who the third person is, but what is a third person actually?
We will get the answer in Pages 34 and 35 of the 1966 Revised Edition of the
"Registration of Land Titles and Deeds" by Narciso Pea.

Page 34

His Highness Prince Julian Morden Tallano in the 2007 agreement with the GPH
is bound to silence the Title in his possession agreeing only that Luzon and
Visayas be under the GPH with the exception of Minandao and Sulu as having
been ceded in inheritance last 1752 and that Mindanao and Sulu belongs to
Muslim Kinships of His Royal Majesty, Sayyid Paduka Shah Ahmad Carpenter
Arpa-V, His Highness' right to ownership over Mindanao and Sulu doing acts of
sovereignty to what limits as the said third person and as by provided in the
Indigenous Peoples Right Act of 1997, RA 8371.

ASSERTING THE RIGHT OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE TO SELFGOVERN THROUGH THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES RIGHT ACT OF
1997 (RA 8371) AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE OF 1991.
Organic Law - The fundamental law or constitution of a particular state or
nation, either written or unwritten, that defines and establishes the manner in
which its government will be organized.
The Indigenous People are those people who are born within an specific area or
territory and it has been that way throughout the history of their ancestry. So the
Indigenous People of the Philippines are the Filipino People
themselves. The notion that the Indigenous People are the indigents or

uncivilized people is erroneous and should be changed. The Indigenous

Peoples Right Act is actually the Filipino Peoples Right Act.

Right to self-governance and empowerment

Our right to self-govern is preserved, protected and intact in the Indigenous

Peoples Right Act, and in accordance with the Article 2 Section 7 of the 1987
Constitution.
Now for the creation of a government, the Local Government Code of 1991 comes
into place. It is found in section 18 of RA 8371.

Tribal Barangay can be created in accordance with R.A. 7160

The Indigenous People have the right to establish their own barangay in
accordance with the Local Government Code of 1991.

To be able to create a barangay, there must be a territory. But it was already

presented that the national government failed to acquire the entitlement of the
Philippine Archipelago by way of eminent domain. Therefore, the national
government has no right to create new barangays nor new
government. THIS EXPLAINS WHY THE DRIVE FOR A FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT SHOULD INSTEAD BE INTERNAL SELFDETERMINATION INTO A MONARCHICAL FORM OF GOVERNMENT
OR THE CHOOSING OF RESPECTIVE TERRITORIES IN THEIR
MANAGING ITS OWN GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS AND ITS OWN SO
CALLED HEAD OF STATE, IN THE MAHARLIKA ARCHIPELAGO
UNDER A NATIONAL GOVERNMENT.

IT IS SO, BECAUSE FEDERALISM IS NULL AND VOID FROM THE

VERY BEGINNING. THIS IS THE ACCEPTED FACT.
The National Government cannot create a new barangay nor a new government,
but in fact is only administering upon the Maharlika Territories having paid the
Royal Family so to expropriate the latter's lands for public use. Although
silencing its Title, Prince Morden Tallano and his forefathers in 1752 having
ceded in inheritance the Mindanao and Sulu to Muslim consanguinity-kinships,
the rightful owners of the said lands only have the right to establish new
Barangays and a new government because they have the absolute right over the
Maharlika Philippine Archipelago. The Government Administration on the 1997
Indigenous Peoples Right Act, is already a step towards Internal SelfDetermination whereby territories declares its sovereign independence,
managing its own affairs and security management Police force with its own
uniform with taxes to the National Government in Manila in the pretext name of
Federalism is viable. An Internal Self-Determination in the name of Federalism
may just be the ideal curse. His Royal Majesty exhorts this means for the total
Peace and Order of the said archipelago.
The present Barangay system may already be the step for Customary Law upon
Non-Muslims, while it also has its Muslim counterpart in the said system, who
may affect the Shari'a Law upon Muslims. Parties belonging to either in disputes
and/or in criminality may be handled in a manner depending on the case and
those involved shall have upon them, Shari'a law or Customary law, depending on
the circumstances.

Article 18 Section 12 of the 1987 Constitution states that: The Supreme Court
shall, within one year after the ratification of this Constitution, adopt a systematic
plan to expedite the decision or resolution of cases or matters pending in the
Supreme Court or the lower courts prior to the effectivity of this Constitution. A
similar plan shall be adopted for all special courts and quasi-judicial bodies.
This provision asserts the governments right of eminent domain for all the cases
pending in courts. The pending case, the expropriation of the OCT T-01-4 is
included in this Transitory Provision of the Constitution. The courts are
mandated by the Constitution to resolve it and the NCIP, as a quasi-judicial body,
also has a provision for such mandate. It can be found in Section 64 of the RA
8371:

In the exercise of the right of the NCIP as Quasi-Judicial body, is there any other
Courts that can alter or question the decision or interpretation of the NCIP with
regards to its interpretation of the Indigenous Peoples Right Act?

Since the Philippine Archipelago is recognized by the National Commission on

Indigenous People as the ancestral land it was once, all activities of the Republic
of the Philippines inside the Philippine Archipelago constitutes to intrusion of
ancestral domain. All persons including the President and Public officials of the

Republic of the Philippines, and Local or International Corporations has

committed an intrusion.

All Corporations operating inside the ancestral domain of the Maharlika ,

particularly, in Mindanao and Sulu had already been terminated, including the
Republic of the Philippines administering upon said territories and lands.

The Conservation and Utilization of Natural Resources is for the Private Rights of
the successor in interest of the Fee Simple Title, Original Certificate of Title No.
T-01-4, and considering the 2007 agreement, and revealed by the Supreme Court
through the awarding of the Entry of Judgment of the expropriation; His Royal
Highness' deem the empowerment and declaration of a new government,
Maharlika Philippines whereby His Highness may seat in Malacanang upon the
charter change to Federal Internal Self-Determination as the National
Government of Maharlika Philippines.
Thus, the privilege of Maharlika Philippines shall no longer be political
sovereignty, however, shall be People's Sovereignty.

It is deemed the respect of His Highness' Constitution to be successfully

established as a the one and only legitimate government that will be in affect by
Charter Change from a Philippine Republic to Maharlika Philippines.The present
Republic of the Philippines has no right to collect RealEstate Property Taxes.

The Essentials of Local Government and Real Property Taxation

This makes it a Corporation Political Sovereignty and not of People's Sovereignty,

which it should.
THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES IS A CORPORATION SINCE
1987
The Republic of the Philippines was a former extension of the operation of the
United States of America but in 1987, it became a Corporation. The 1987
Constitution is a probationary Constitution that shall raise the new government
of Maharlika Philippines, because as there was an intended lapse in the
Transitory Provision.

Former President Corazon Aquino committed a grave crime against the people
for issuing of Executive Order/s that converted the government into a
CORPORATION / CORPORATE GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY. The following
provisions of the 1935 and 1987 Constitution was violated yet the legislators
allowed such Anomalous Administrative Code to have converted the government

into a private Corporation to this day. none in the Judiciary and Legislative
branch has done corrective action regarding this.
Article 13 Section 7 of the 1935 Constitution - The National Assembly shall not,
except by general law, provide for the formation, organization, or regulation of
private corporations, unless such corporations are owned or controlled by the
Government or any subdivision or instrumentality thereof.
Article 7 Section 16 of the 1935 Constitution- The Congress shall not, except by
general law, provide for the formation, organization, or regulation of private
corporations. Government-owned or controlled corporations may be created or
established by special charters in the interest of the common good and subject to
the test of economic viability.
This is the reason why the Corporation disguised as a Government, the
Republic of the Philippines Corporation, sold all the properties considered
to be for the common good of the people, to private Corporations. The leaders in
the government sold us to the oligarchs.
BY NOW, WE SHOULD HAVE ALREADY KNOWN THAT THE REPUBLIC OF
THE PHILIPPINES IS A CORPORATION.

TO BREAK FREE FROM THE CORPORATION, THE REPUBLIC OF

THE PHILIPPINES CORPORATION.
How would we go about to correct the wrong when we already are paralyzed by
the government that we heavily relied upon. The government we have is a Harlot,
it sabotages our posterity for it sold the soul of our beloved Country, Maharlika
Philippines, to foreign investors and oligarchs.
Your Excellency, Knowledge is both our empowerment, moreover, your
Excellency's authority to correct the wrong done upon our country and our
people. The time has come for charter Change of Government, a must. It is Your

Excellency, Mister President Rodrigo R. Duterte as President to affect this the

change deem in promulgating the change already backed and has legally
supplanted the present status of the present government of the Republic of the
Philippines to Maharlika Philippines, pending your promulgation.
Not to mention the Maharlika Philippine Assets wherein His Highness may have
personality for control while said Assets are in custodial protection in its
depository, the World Bank, Suisse and many other.
Revisiting history, opening covenants of peace, studying it and riding His Royal
Highness foreign Affairs, and as once mentioned by practically all Presidents till
President Marcos, to Make This Country Great Again. And by no other than a
charter change to MAHARLIKA PHILIPPINES, through Constitutional and Legal
processes of Law and of Rule. Uniting in restoring our glorious past of the Noble
Kingdom of Maharlika Strings of Sultanates and Rajanates (also
known as the Muslim National Archipelago). Reborned as Maharlika
Philippines also known by colonial Spain as Hacienda Filipinas (not Kingdom
Hacienda Filipinas), also known by the Jews and King Solomon as Ophir or the
Isles of Gold. To the present, being the richest Country in the world, why is its
Nation, the poorest. Suffering because we have not yet reached our final political
status. The government we have is plagued by oligarch-controlled tyrant leaders,
who only focuses on enriching themselves.
Mr. President, The good news is, you are making the steps towards
the Cause His Highness Cause. Promulgating the Cause, must have
been ordained upon Your Excellency.
Article II Section 7 of the 1987 Constitution states that the paramount
considerations in pursuing Independent Foreign Policy, are NATIONAL
SOVEREIGNTY, TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY, NATIONAL INTEREST,
and the RIGHT TO SELF-DETERMINATION. As provided by the
Constitution, the President is correct in his move to pursue an independent

foreign policy, however, should include the consideration of paramount

considerations, to his Royal Highness.
Internal Self-Determination in the name of Federalism or Federalism may just be
synonymous, or simply Totally Reviving Maharlikas Sovereignty utilizing current
developments and modifying Constitutional and Government policies conducive
to Customary and Sharia Laws. It is the solution to insurgency problem. And It
is truly of peoples' sovereignty which shall be simply, Self-Determination of our
people.
Charter Changed to Royal Maharlika Philippines or plainly Maharlika as a
Monarchical Form of Government may instill the Peace and order we sought. As
each territory shall be managing its own affairs under its own Monarch,
Governor, or whatever name of head of State it chosses; under one National
and/or Federal Government in Manila, the latter standing as Maharlika. Each
state contributes taxes to the National and/or Federal Government of 70/30
percent, respectively.
As your Excellency said of stepping down when the time comes, the present setup
of government may be under such Monarchy that instills its elegancy and
correctness of people's lives and government rule of law to follow. With some
modifications in government as Customary and Shari'a Law to respective
adherents.
In exercising its governance, there should be jurisdiction. The acts of sovereignty
of government with its territorial integrity. Before, there are wars to gain control
in political terms as a government. After wars, Treaties of Peace are signed and
becomes the binding basis in the formulation and/or modification of the laws in
establishing its government.
The Treaties where our national sovereignty, territorial integrity, national
interest, and our right to self-determination monumented are the Treaty of Paris
and Treaty of Versailles.

Treaty of Paris Philippines cession diagram in English

Treaty of Paris Philippines cession diagram in Filipino

Based on the 1898 Treaty of Paris, the Philippines was only temporarily received
by the United States. Not to mention the "Titulo De Compra" that Spain issued
the Royal Family in Exchanged for 20 Million Dollars provided by the Royal
Family whereby the United States Paid to Spain. How could the Victorious USA
pay the Loser-Spain in the 1898 Treaty of Paris of December 10? Since the
Philippines was ceded to the US, the US Congress was given authority to pass
relevant legislation to establish a government operation within the Philippine
territory, and it is still subject to be replaced legally. The US is only a TRUSTEE
and was mandated to help and develop the territory in favor of the indigenous
population. This is later reiterated in Article 22 of the treaty ending world war I,
the Treaty of Versailles.

The continuing obligation of the United States in the Treaty of Peace between US
and Spain was assumed by the Republic of the Philippines. This can be found in
Article XVII Section 1.4 of the 1935 Constitution. Analyzing, one should see the
irony in this part of the 1935 Constitution. We are not really free and independent
since the government we have is only an extension of the United States Military
Government.
The Republic of the Philippines assumed the responsibility of the United States in
the Treaty of Paris but to whom the Republic of the Philippines relinquishes the
territory ceded by Spain to the USA, which is temporarily? The Republic of the
Philippines simply became the new TRUSTEE, and we the people thought we
already became independent upon the turnover in 1946.
If we remain blinded and mesmerized to that illusion of truly independent, we
will remain a puppet nation under foreign sovereign powers administering under
its dictates. The preamble of the Constitution states that we are yet to establish a
government. The keywords; "in order to build" and "shall establish", refers to
future event paramount to our NATIONAL INTEREST.
Our Constitution is a puzzle for our real freedom and independence and if we
solve it, we then can finally reach our final political status. Solving this puzzle
will be the guiding light in our pursuit for our right to SELFDETERMINATION.

In the 1898 Treaty of Paris, our TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY and

NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY is secured. In this treaty, the territory of the

Philippines was secured through TRUSTEESHIP and the USA is the TRUSTEE. .
The problem now is we were made to believe that we are already independent
upon the turnover of governance to the Republic in 1946, where in reality, there
was only a transfer of TRUSTEESHIP. Our leaders did not see that coming, but
now, we should have already seen it through this article. Truth shall prevail if the
truth is accepted.
Let us respect people's sovereignty of His Highness' royal majesty and of the
Constitution, which we are ordained to promulgate, and so let it be affectively
enforced, as it has been written and said.
The laws to establish a new government is already there. Its the owner of the land
who shall and can establish the new government through these laws. Now the
oligarchs are pushing for a Federal Government but they are not discussing nor
expounding the truth regarding the territory of the Philippines. They cannot do
that because the Constitution needs to be promulgated first. That is why
FEDERALISM may not be it. A Charter Change to Maharlika may be it.
Our people undermined in the 1987 Constitution, the non-Recognition of
Nobilities and by converting the government into a Corporation, Federalism is
just another means, moreover, in undermining the peoples' sovereignty and
should no longer be allowed since its inception during the colonial years. Do not
let this happen again.
The Republic of the Philippines is a Corporation that needs to be replace in
accordance with the provisions of the Constitution for the Fulfillment of the
Treaty of Paris, whereby we should have revived to Maharlika in the modernation
of our country.
The 2007 Agreement between Prince Julian Morden Talllano Title holder of OCT
01-4 and the GRP/GPH, whereby t5he formers lands and territories were tacitly
expropriated in the Silencing of Title, Compensated and stands as Judicial
Administrator on said territories of OCT 01-4, It is stipulated the exception of

Mindanao (and Sulu) as having been reverted to 1752 ceding in inheritance to the
three sultans of Mindanao (and Sulu). Its progeny in 1825 was Sulu Sultan
Jamalul Kiram-I (Muwalil Wasit) whose son was the 1839 Sulu Sultan Pulalun
(the childless Moh. Faud Abdulla or Fadlun-Pullong).
Sultan Kiram-I, his sister Sitti Mahandun married to Sayyid Nakhoda Perkasa
Angging, the latter and brother Nakhoda Sangkalang who had led Sulu Warriors
in suppressing the 1613 North Borneo rebellion by the self proclaimed Sultan
Mobin against the Brunei Sultan. Reason why North Borneo-Sabah was given as
a Tribute to the Sulu Sultanate. Nakhoda Agging was the grandson of Brunei 2 nd
Sultan Ahmad.
In 1704, Nakhoda Angging was sent as Brunei Maharaja in the Sulus with his
official Brunei Nakhoda flag and the twin-headed Alligator/Crocodile Flag as
twin authority of the Brunei Sultan. Seated in Siasi Sulu, known as Maharaja
Anddin to guard against the possible ceding of North Borneo-Sabah to the
Spanish Government in Manila by then Sulu Sultan Shahabuddin. North
Palawan was instead ceded in 1705. Maharaja Anddin (Nakhoda Angging), his
community resident in Siasi was named Subah Buaya.
Sitti Mahandun and Nakhoda Anggings son was Moh. Taup, the latter
proclaimed as Prince Heir-Apparent as Maharaja Adinda Taup by his first cousin,
Sulu Sultan Pulalun in 1859.
In 1861, Sultan Pulalun granted visiting rights or pretensions of sovereignty to
the Spanish in Sulu. Only in Jolo, Tawi-tawi, Basilan and Zamboanga, the latter
place known as Jambangan, whereby Maguindanao and Sulu Sultanates brought
in flowers planted from reaching from Malasia and Brunei Sultanates.
Jambangan was a central point of trade and was part of Maguindanao Sultanate
and latter known as simply Mindanao. While Maguindanao deduced into a
Municipality only. While Sta. Cruz Island to Sitangkay was part of the Sulu
Sultanate.

Sultan Pulalun transferred his seat at the hinterlands prior to Spanish arrival in
Jolo, Sulu. While in the hinterlands, Prince Mcleod Victoria, the brother of
Englands Queen Alexandria Victoria, sent two British subjects; Baron Von
Overbeck and Alfred Dent, Esq. to the Sulu Sultanate to lease North BorneoSabah in establishing the British North Borneo Company Chaired by Prince
Mcleod.
When a Commoner, Jamlul Agdam/Azam presented himself as
Sulu Sultan, signing the 1878 Lease Treaty Agreement of North
Borneo-Sabah for perpetuity. Agdam signed the said Treaty
presenting himself as the son of Sultan Pulalun in the name as
Sultan Jamalul Alam, after the Brunei Sultan Jamalul Alam-II in
order to show his kinship with the latter who had referred the
two British subjects to the new owner (Sultan Pulalun) of North
Borneo-Sabah that was ceded as a Tribute to the Sulu
Sultanate.
After Sultan Pulalun, the Sulu sultanate was reigned by Usurper-Sultans to the
present, whereby should have been succeeded by Maharaja Adinda Taup down to
his present lineage, the Undersigned.
Maharaja Adinda Taups son was Sayyid Imam Ul-Alam Arpa (Arafa), the latter
given back Sulus sovereignty standing as the 1916-1934 Highest Spiritual Leader
of Sulu replacing the Sulu Usurper Sultan Jamalul Kiram-II (a commoner,
Amirul Kiram Awal-II) , who in 1915 had surrendered his temporal powers to the
American military administration, deduced as Highest Spiritual Leader in the
1915 Carpenter Memorandum Agreement in exchanged for a lifetime pension and
enjoying the amenities provided by the Americans.
Sayyid Imam Ul-Alam Arpa was given back Sulus sovereignty by the American
Governor of Mindanao and Sulu-Gov. Frank W. Carpenter, the latter who
supported the said Spiritual Leaders acts of sovereignty in promulgating the
Literacy Campaign, building of schools, roads, water system and Jambatanswharfs. The said Spiritual Leader was paraded on a Palakaya vinta throughout

the Sulus as attested by Imam Apdal in an Affidavit and also concurred by the
late Ibrahim Rasul, the latter being the son of the 1915 Sulu Sultanate Chief
Minister-Buto Abdulbaki.
A Sultan has both Temporal and Ecclesiastical-religious powers that is
inseparable in Islamic Jurisprudence referred as Tawhid. And this always goes
hand-in-hand in Islamic Jurisprudence. So, Sayyid Imam Ul-Alam Arpa did
reigned as Sulu Sultan from 1916 to 1934 even within the purview of foreign
administering powers.
1426, the very first Sultan of Sulu was Sultan Sharif Ul-Hashim (Zein UlAbidin /AbuBkr) the Undersigneds 5th grandfather. While his brother
established the very first Sultanate of Maguindanao reigning as Sultan Aliwya
(Sharif Kabungsuwan/Karim Ul-Makdum/AbuBaik).
And as in Nobility and Islamic Jurisprudence, I am His Highness Royal Majesty
as by the conference of Kings and Heads of Governments, and the two Prime
Ministers conference in Rabat promulgating the establishment of the
Organization of Islamic Conference (now Organization of Islamic Cooperation),
the counterpart of the United Nations Organization, in recognizing Nobilities
and Sultanate Governments. Wassalam.
Incidentally, five usurping sultans of Sulu established the Royal Council for Sulu
Sultanate and appointed Gov. Sakur Tan as their Datu Minister in promoting the
said five to be the one accepted Sulu Sultan by the GRP/GPH. However, all five
walked away when the said Governor declared himself in a self proclamation as
the one Sultan of Sulu. Representing Sulu for economic development, Sakur Tan
was instrumental in getting the support of the three major investors who
committed to the development in Sulu.
Footnote; Truer Sultan in nag parinta is never as coming from a political stand.
Moreover, is not even recognized by the Sultanate adherents.
Wa Billahi Tawfiq Wal-Hidaya, Wassalmu Alaikum Warahmatullah.
