History
The first inhabitants of the place are of Subanen origin. Kabasalan comes from the word basal, meaning to play the agung, a musical instrument which is a favorite pastime of the Subanon. It was during the old times that the whole peninsula was resonating with the sound of that instrument.
In 1956, Siay was established, as twenty-six barrios and sitios, including Barrio Siay which would be the seat of government in the newly created municipality, had been separated from Kabasalan, along with parts of Malangas.[1]
Kabasalan was greatly affected by Typhoon Tembin (2017) which most of the municipality where flooded. Schools were destroyed due to strong winds.
