The word "Landang-Landang", meaning frying, came from an old woman, who apparently has a defect hearing, was there cooking when the team asked what was the name of the place. The surveying team asked the old woman again, she answered "Laum" thinking the surveyors asked what was she was frying.. So, the surveying team concluded that the name of the barangay was "Landang Laum" combining the two words that she answered. That was then the place Landang Laum came into existence.
