History of Landang Laum, Zamboanga City

The place called Landang Laum became a Barangay of Zamboanga City way back in 1945 after liberation in World War II. It is one of the original 94 Barangays of Zamboanga City.

There were numerous talks about the origin of the name Landang Laum. One story tells of a group of surveying team from the Bureau of Lands, they went to Sacol Island purposely to survey the vast of virgin forest/land area with big trees, rich soil, some were already cultivated into agricultural lands planted with seasonal crops, permanent plant like coconut trees, mango, bananas and other root crops. 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. Surveying team pointing out to southeast area as Barangay Landang Gua, also in Sacol Island. The other two barangays in the island are Busay and Pasilmanta.
