Amai Manabilang
Amai Manabilang, officially the Municipality of Amai Manabilang (Maranao: Inged a Amai Manabilang; Tagalog: Bayan ng Amai Manabilang), is a municipality in the province of Lanao del Sur, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 12,124 people.
The municipality, formerly Bumbaran, was changed to Amai Manabilang under Muslim Mindanao Act No. 316 on January 22, 2015.
Bumbaran is named after the legendary city of Magalinday Bembaran in the Darangen, a Meranau (Maranao) epic. The scenic beauty of the town resembles the beauty of Magalinday Bembaran.
After the political efforts of Mayor James Manabilang, Bumbaran was renamed into Amai Manabilang, in honor of his own personal ancestor.
Bumbaran was commonly known before as “Aparport” its seat of government. Its existence came into being when President Ferdinand Marcos signed into law on November 17, 1977, Presidential Decree No. 1243 creating Aparport a separate and independent municipality and naming it the Municipality of Bumbaran, separate from the Municipality of Wao, its mother municipality. This was necessary in order to maximize the enforcement of law and order and expedite optimum and sustainable development.
At that time, the municipality consisted of 21 barangays namely: Sumogot, Francfort, Lambanogan, Punud, Comara, Aparport, Paglamatan, Natangcopan, Mansilano, Salam, Bandara-Ingud, Ranao-Ibaning, Bagumbayan, Pagonayan, Piagma, Lico, Siuan, Lama, Borntacan, Miorod, and Someorang. It was reduced to seventeen barangays when President Corazon Aquino signed an Executive Order in December 1986 abolishing thousands of barangays in the country which affected barangays Lama, Miorod, Borontacan, and Someorang.[citation needed]
On January 22, 2015, Bumbaran was renamed to Amai Manabilang by virtue of Muslim Mindanao Act No. 316. It was later confirmed through a plebiscite held on April 7, 2018.
The municipal boundaries are defined as follows: on the east by the municipality of Wao, separated by a straight line 13.65 kilometers (8.48 mi) long, drawn northward from Point 1 to Point 2 on the bank of the Maladugao river 1.5 kilometers (0.93 mi). East Sumogot on the Lanao–Bukidnon boundary as point 3; then by straight line following the Lumba-Bayabao–Wao boundary line. Southward of the intersection of the Lanao–Cotabato boundary as point 4; then finally 1.72 kilometers (1.07 mi). Eastward following the Lanao–Cotabato boundary to the starting point.
