Francisco Maniago was a Filipino revolutionary leader who lived in the 17th century, during the Spanish colonization period in the Philippines.

He led a revolt in Pampanga in 1660[1] against the bandala system, where the locals were forced to sell their agricultural products at low prices,[2] and the polo y servicio system, a form of forced labor where the locals worked on any government project without payment.

[3] Under polo y servicio, men in Pampanga worked as timber cutters for eight months,[4] which led to low agricultural harvests.

[5] To show their opposition against the forced labor system, the men set their campsite on fire, and chose Francisco Maniago, the chief from Mexico, Pampanga, as their leader.

[4] Under Maniago, the revolting group closed the mouths of the rivers with stakes to disrupt commerce.
