Who are those 10 borneans datus?
The story of the buying of Panay by ten datus coming from Borneo is told in the Maragtas, a legendary account about the pre-Spanish Panay Island. This narrative tells us that about A.D. 1250, at about the time Malaysia and Indonesia were dominated by the Hindu-Malay Empire of Sri-Vijaya, a cruel sultan named Makatunaw ruled Borneo-or perhaps part of it. Because he was cruel, ten of his datus decided to leave Borneo and seek their freedom and fortune beyond the sea.The Ten Datus were:#1. Datu Puti (the leader)#2. Datu Balensusa#3. Datu Bangkaya#4. Datu Dumalugdog#5. Datu Dumangsil#6. Datu Dumangsol#7. Datu Lubay#8. Datu Panduhinog#9. Datu Paliburong#10. Datu SumakwelOne dark night after loading on boats their families, warriors, slaves, and supplies, they secretly left in their balangays(boats) without a specific destination in mind. After sailing north for many days, they reached the southern tip of Panay Island. They landed at the mouth of the Sirwagan River there, near the present town of San Joaquin in Iloilo. From there they proceeded to Lake Andona where they met an Ati fisherman. This man led them to the Negrito village of Sinugbuhan and was introduced to the local ruler, King Marikudo and his queen, Maniwantiwan. Datu Puti addressed them and said they came as friends and would like to buy land.Marikudo consulted his wife and the elders of his kingdom and agreed to sell some land to them. The purchase price consisted of a gold salakot (a native helmet) for Marikudo and a long gold sumangyad (necklace) for Maniwantiwan. The sale was sealed by a pact of friendship and merry feasting. After that, Marikudo and his people bade farewell to the Borneans and went into the hills.Seven of the ten datus settled in Panay. The three others-Balensusa, Dumangsil and Puti sailed farther north and reached Lake Taal, in present-day Batangas province. Impressed by the fertility and scenic beauty of the area, Balensusa and Dumangsil settled there. Datu Puti, however, returned to Borneo. He told the Borneans about his exciting adventures in the islands of the north.

Who is datu puti?
He was a figure in Phillippino legend, who is credited with having co-founded pre-Colonial Philippino civilisation. 'Datu' means tribal chief or headman- the legend tells that Datu Puti originally came from Borneo, which was at the time ruled by a dictator called Makatunaw. Puti, along with 9 other Datu's and their wives & children, decided to flee Makatunaw's reign of terror and set sail to colonise new lands, which they did in the traditional Bornean longboats known as barangays. After much voyaging, they eventually made landfall on two islands called Panay and Sinugbuhan (which we now collectively call The Philippines). At the time, the islands were inhabited by the Aeta people, who were ruled by a benevolent chief called Mirakudo. When they first saw the big Borneans wading ashore, the small-statured Aeta were terrified and feared that they were the advance guard of a hostile invasion, but Datu Puti was friendly towards them and made it clear that he and his companions came in peace. Mirakudo at once welcomed them as guests- the Borneans and the Aeta traded items and supplies with each other, and celebrated their new alliance with a lavish feast, at which Datu Puti negociated the sale of uninhabited parts of the islands in which to develop new farming settlements. The new Bornean colony was succesful, and grew established in the following years. Eventually, Datu Puti declared that he wished to return to Borneo to attempt to lead a popular uprising and overthrow Makatunaw- none of his original companions would go with him, so he went alone with his wife & children. He was never seen or heard of again. Nonetheless, he is still remembered fondly across the Philippines to this day, as having been the leader of the founding fathers of the Philippino nation.
