MUNICIPAL HISTORY
D Umaran was once a part of the Municipality of Araceli from 1903 up to 1960. The place was created as a municipality on June
18, 1961, under Republic Act No. 3418. The first settlers in the municipality of Dumaran came from the Municipality of Cuyo.
The early settlers from Cuyo landed in Dagman in 1875 in search for food and a root crop locally known as “ corot”, which they
find delicious when properly prepared. Bernardo Aborot, Felipe Umblas, Bruno Reino and Juana Heredero were believed to be the
original settlers. Later on, more people from Cagayancillo and Cuyo came and they decided to form a barrio. But they were short of five
families to qualify as such so they recruited five families from Calandagan, which was also then in process of organization. Likewise, in
another barrio, Juan Casenas and his group of settlers combined forces with the Paguntalan and Palces families of Barrio Lagman to
form what is now Barangay San Juan. On the other hand, the Tagbanuas founded Barrio Bacao half a century ago. Again, the Cuyunos
like the Argulles family came in settled down for good. This barrio was the headquarters of “Company B’ under Lt. Felipe Batul, a school
teacher, then its commanding officer.
The Municipality of Dumaran is located between 10⁰34 east longitude, sharing common boundaries on the south by Lancan Bay, on the
north by Pali Island, on the east by the interiors of Barangay Itangil and on the west by the Sulu Sea. It is 131.2 nautical miles from
Puerto Princesa City and 54.5 nautical miles from the Municipality of Roxas, the nearest commercially active municipality. Dumaran has
a total land area of 55, 327.08 hectares. It represents 3.7 percent of the province’ total land area and is compose of 16 barangays.

TOPOGRAPHY, SOILS AND CLIMATE
About 71.00 percent of the land area of the municipality is located in mainland Palawan while the rest is part of Dumaran Island. The
portion within the island is distinctly different from the mainland area with respect to contour. The island consisted mainly of low hills
of not more than 150 meters elevation while the mainland are mostly comprised of high hill and mountains. Flat lands are limited both
in extent and occurrence. Flat lands are found in relatively small patches along the coasts and in minor stream valleys.
The soils of Dumaran have been investigated only on a broad, reconnaissance level of survey of the Bureau of Soils in 1960 and in 1979.
Based on these surveys, the following soil types are Babuyan Silty Clay Loam, Coron Clay Loam, rough Mountainous Land, Beach Sand
and Hydrosol.
The climatic condition of Dumaran falls with Type 1 classification. The dry season is from March to June while the wet season is from
July to December.
WATER RESOURCES
There are three major river systems in the municipality: The Ilian River that can be used for domestic and agricultural purpose; the Leget
and Abo Rivers that empty in Sabang Bay and Leget Point. The tributaries of these three major rivers are the major sources of potable
water and water for agricultural uses.
A total of four waterfalls were reported in the area. The highest is the Umalongay Falls having a height of 600 feet. There are three
natural springs namely: Ilian, Lagoyloy and Itangil Spring. In terms of coastal water resources, the shoreline of Dumaran are covered
with coral reefs which can be hazardous to navigation vessels but very favourable to the maintenance of marine life within the area. The
most extensive reefs are found between Avenanamatan and Masinge Point. Between these two points, the coral reefs even extend to
more than three kilometres from the nearest shoreline.

account of their descent from populations which inhabited the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues’ recommendation

inroads of non-indigenous religions and cultures, or the sessions in 2002 and 2003, the Permanent Forum identified “data

B. Age Distribution

Majority of the surveyed population in the barangay falls under the age range of 0 to 14 years old.
The distribution of the surveyed population according to age is as follows: 0-14 years (children) 6840 or 36 percent, 15-
24 years (early working age) 3675 or 19 percent, 25-54 years (prime working age) 6124 or 33 percent, 55-64 years
(mature working age) 1197 or 7 percent, 65 years and over (elderly) 963 or 6 percent. Refer to Table 2.
The age structure of a population affects a community's key socioeconomic issues. Communities with young populations
(high percentage under age 15) need to invest more in schools, while communities with older populations (high
percentage ages 65 and over) need to invest more in the health sector. The age structure can also be used to help
predict potential political issues. For example, the rapid growth of a young adult population unable to find employment
can lead to unrest.
