The Macapagal family is one of the descendants of Lakan Bunao Dula, the Patriarch of the House of Dula and the last King of Tondo.

Their official family historian has this in their history:

Macapagal (rare variant: Makapagal) is a Filipino surname derived from the Kapampangan language.

The family claims noble descent from Dola de Goiti Dula, a legitimate grandchild of Lakan Dula, the last "王" or King of Tondo "東都" (Dongdu). It is the only known branch of the Seludong's royal family to have survived the Majapahit Empire's invasion, the Sultanate of Brunei's pogrom against native royals, Chinese warlord Limahong's massacres, and the fallout from the Tondo Conspiracy. The family survived due to Martin de Goiti's giving of his Mestiza (Half Aztec and Half-Spanish) daughter in marriage to Batang Dula, the eldest son of Lakan Bunao Dula of the Lakanate of Tondo. As time went on, they incorporated the descendants from the two other royal houses: the house of Rajah Matanda (ऋअज ंअतन्द) and the house of Tariq Suleiman (سليمان).The family then migrated to Pampanga and Northern Samar after the Spanish assumed control of Manila.The following are people possessing the Macapagal surname:Don Juan Macapagal (d. 1683), former prince of Tondo and first documented bearer of the surname. Great-grandson of Lakandula Lazaro Macapagal (c. 1860s), officer of the revolutionary army during the Philippine Revolution. Commanding officer ordered to execute Andrés Bonifacio Diosdado Macapagal (1910-1997), former 9th President of the Philippines and 5th Vice President of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (born 1947), daughter of Diosdado Macapagal; former Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Philippines, 14th President of the Philippines and 10th Vice President of the Philippines Mikey Macapagal Arroyo (born 1969), son of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo; served as representative and vice governor of Pampanga Diosdado Macapagal Arroyo (born 1974), son of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo; served as representative of Camarines Sur Maan Macapagal, television news reporter.

Based on this article, they seem to believe that Rajah Soliman and Tariq Soliman are one and the same because Lakan Dula, Rajah Matanda and Rajah Soliman are brothers but in the official family history of the Macapagal, they have written Lakan Dula, Rajah Matanda and Tariq Soliman , instead of Rajah Soliman...as if Tariq Soliman and Rajah Soliman are the same and interchangeable. The implication of this is that the Soliman is not a Muslim but a kapampangan, according to the Macapagal family.

Is rajah soliman and rajah lapu-lapu brothers?

no, they are not. there is no document or oral tradition that would support this proposition. lapulapu was encountered by the spaniards in 1521, sulayman or soliman(also known as Raja Mura or young king) in 1571. that's 50 years interval. if we assume that lapu-lapu was a full grown man and so was soliman by 1521. if we add 50 years to soliman's age from 1521, he would have been an old man by 1571 and hence it would not be logical to call him Raja Mura or Young King, the one who succeeded Raja Matanda or Old King. the proponent who espoused the idea that lapu-lapu and soliman were brothers have likewise assumed that both men ruled their petty kingdoms contemporaneously. but no, they did not. they were from different generations of precolonial petty chieftains in the Philippines.
