Naglabas si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ng Executive Order 152 ngayong Martes na nag-aatas sa publiko at pribadong sektor na tukuyin ang unang Pilipinong bayani bilang Lapulapu sa halip na Lapu-Lapu.

Nakasaad sa EO 152 na ang pinakaunang interpretasyon sa Latin alphabet ng pangalan ng bayani ng Mactan ay “Cilapulapu,” na may “Ci” na mistulang isang honorific title, kung saan ang mga founding heroes gaya nina Jose Rizal at Juan Luna ay nabuo ang kanilang sariling pagturing dito bilang “Si Lapulapu.”


“The name Lapulapu is understood to refer to the Filipino hero who bravely and victoriously fought in the Battle of Mactan [against the Spaniard colonizers] in the 16th century. Thus, all references to the name “Lapu-Lapu” in EO No. 17, as amended, and EO No. 55, as amended, are hereby amended to read as Lapulapu,” batay sa EO.


“Adopting a common rendering of the name of Lapulapu, so as to conform to earlier references, will aid in the education of our youth about Philippine history which is foundational to the formation of national identity,” ayon pa sa EO 152.


Dahil dito at batay sa EO 152, ang lahat ng ahensiya ng gobyerno at instrumentalities, kabilang ang government-owned or-controlled corporations, maging ang state universities at kolehiyo, gayundin, ang mga local government units (LGUs), non-government organizations, civil society groups, at ang pribadong sektor, “are hereby enjoined to adopt Lapulapu when referring to the name of the first Filipino hero.”


Gayunman, nakasaad din sa EO na ang mga lugar na nakapangalan na sa Lapu-Lapu gaya ng Lapu-Lapu City sa Cebu ay mananatiling Lapu-Lapu ang reference dahil ang mga ito ay itinatag na may statute.
