History & Identity

Created
The Municipality of President Manuel A. Roxas was created by Republic Act No. 5077, approved 17 June 1967, out of 21 barrios of Katipunan; the seat of government was Barrio Tangian.[9]

Its story

The town was separated from Katipunan: Republic Act No. 5077 took barrios such as Tangian, Langatian, Dohinob, Tanayan and Dinoman out of that municipality.[9]

Earlier, Executive Order No. 115 of 1 October 1964 had created a municipality called Roxas from 20 barrios and sitios of Katipunan, with its seat at Langatian, to begin existing once its officials were appointed and the Secretary of Finance certified it financially capable.[10]
