period, towns were established. Libon

exclaimed "muy frio" which the
natives interpreted as "Malilipot"
which means very cold.
 another story alleged that when a

Malilipot Spanish ship disembarked on the

bay of Malilipot, Spaniards ask a

native fisherman for the name of

the place. Due to languange
