He wanted to kill Lapu-lapu for his stubbornness for refusing to recognize the rule of Spain over his dominion. He wouldn't embrace Christianity is also one of the reasons why we wants to kill Lapu-lapu.

Who is Mr Martin Eddy Hornido Tirwatadinata?
Someone (mostly likely part of the H. Martin Foundation, based on their having lifted the language off their answer directly from its web site) initially answered:
H. Martin Foundation originated in the Far East. Mr. Martin Eddy Hornido Tirwatadinata is the son of the Sultan of Bogor, Indonesia. He is the Founder / World Chairman, Sole Funder and Sole Signatory of the Funds of legendary magnitude which have reached the highest monetary authorities of the U.S. Federal Reserve. These international assets are well documented in the United States Department of Treasury.
RECENTLY ADDED ANSWER: March 30, 2010
The above statements can be verified and confirmed by the United States Department of Treasury and the US Federal Reserve during the peak of Japan's economy in late 1996 and early 1997. Mr. Martin Eddy Hornido Tirwatadinata requested his bank, Tokyo Mitsubishi Bank to transfer $46Billion USD in seven tranches in the accounts opened by Mr. Sydney Clarke on behalf of H. MARTIN FOUNDATION Far East Humanitarian Services (HMF) / Mr. Martin E. Hornido. Mr. Sydney Clarke of Caribbean Trading, NA, Inc. opened the bank accounts with the used of Ms. Flor Lat Villapando's authority for him to open the bank account.The Pre-advice was done by Tokyo Mitsubishi Bank three times, one with PNC NA Bank, Fleet Bank and Chemical Bank in New Jersey upon which the banks readily closed the account because of the magnitude of the money. Upon hearing this incident, representatives of Wells Fargo Bank, Merrill Lynch, Salomon Brothers etc. went to Japan to participate in receiving these funds.
The answer below is from a misinformed, destitute writer whose words are hallow to believe in because he is NOT an accredited banker by Federal Reserve, does NOT have the authority to speak on behalf of the US Federal Reserve and the United States Treasury nor has the capability to do proper due diligence.
Another answerer then added:
The answer is incorrect. There are no legendary magnitude of funds. The Federal Reserve Board and the treasury department are different entities. There are NO documented international assets accredited to this person!
The Sultan of Bogor does not exist . The US Federal Reserve and US Treasury does not have any dealings with him or his Foundation. Below is one of several articles QUESTIONING THE LEGITIMACY of the H Martin Foundation.
