Additional Information: As a young boy, Sofronio Dulay wanted to be a soldier. In his teens, he wanted to be a priest. He ended up becoming a management professor of a leading Manila - based university for 25 years. As a PTA President of Marist School in his hometown Marikina, he raised money to finish the new basketball court and made their library air conditioned. He has been a management consultant of several entities. He is known for a "cost efficient and pro people approaches" to a given organizational problem, such as in the national education and health areas. He looks at K-12 program as anti poor and was one of those who filed against it in the Supreme Court. During the Noynoy Aquino presidential campaign, he was with Sec Jimmy Galvez Tan who formulated the Universal Health agenda of the incoming Aquino Administration. Recently, he filed a case against 19 government officials whom he thinks violated the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) Law. The Ombudsman suspended these officials for half a year. The case is still on going. In 2020, he proposed to then President Rodriqo Duterte the revival of Wawa Dams to lessen the flood of Metro Manila and add potable water to MWSS, and to free the Magat Dam of some water for the irrigation of the farms in central Luzon. Few days later, Dir. Jaime Llaguno of the Presidential Action Center wrote to Director Andro Santiago of DPWH to facilitate the request of Prof. Dulay. A team of DPWH Engineers made a feasibility study and forwarded it to NEDA for approval. Eventually, the Razon Group and its partner finalized the plan and built the Tayabasan Weir in Wawa Area that now lessen floods in Marikina and Pasig River, and stabilized the water supply of MWSS. The Upper Wawa Dam Project has also been finished recently and is now fully operationalized. He also wrote a letter to President Duterte about the case of indigenous people of Palawan whose ancestral domain is being disrespected by some businessmen. The Presidential Action Center endorsed his letter to NCIP and as of this writing, peaceful settlement is on going. He has been the organizer of the "Sto.Nino de Tondo Anual Pilgrimage" for almost a decade now; the "Dine with the Ancestor Ritual"; and the "Sumpa ni Lakan Dula" narrative. He is also the main proponent of the "Principalia Intermigration Theory" which reconciled the Bellwood and Solheim theories of migrations. He also initiated the "Order of the House of Dula" which is based on royal lineage and ability to advocate for the Filipino culture. His future advocacy is to name the plaza in front of the Sto. Nino de Tondo Church as Lakan Dula Plaza, name the second Sunday of December as the Lakan Dula Day and lobby the Vatican and the Pope to make Lakan Bunao Dula, the last King of the Lakanate of Tondo, as one of the Catholic Saints for his help to Christianize the country by converting to Catholicism, urging one of his sons to be a priest and helped in the creation of Catholic chapels in his area of influence. There are recent documented miracles attributed to Lakan Bunao Dula that has to be presented. He is also proposing to President Ferdinand Marcos a 200 hectare agar wood and cacao plantation to serve as a model for livelihood program of the indigenous Filipinos and to revive the Green Revolution Program.
