Don Victoriano Chiongbian, officially the Municipality of Don Victoriano Chiongbian, shortened to just Don Victoriano (Cebuano: Lungsod sa Don Victoriano Chiongbian; Tagalog: Bayan ng Don Victoriano Chiongbian), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Misamis Occidental, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 9,664 people.[3]

The municipality is home to Mount Malindang National Park.

History

[edit]

The municipality was created, originally named Don Mariano Marcos, by virtue of Batas Pambansa Blg. 171 which was approved on February 8, 1982. Parts of seven municipalities in the province had been detached to be constituted into a new, distinct municipality. Those separated were barangays in Tudela (3) including Tuno which was designated the seat of government, Jimenez (also 3), Bonifacio (2), Clarin and Sinacaban (one in each); as well as sitios in a barangay each in Panaon and Aloran, situated on a side of Mount Malindang Range.[5] A plebiscite for ratification, along with ten more newly created local entities, was held on May 17, coinciding with the barangay elections.[6]

It was later renamed to its present-day one, as Don Victoriano Chiongbian,[7] although officially as Don Victoriano through Republic Act No. 6845 which was issued on January 20, 1990,[8] in honor of a native of Jimenez who served as councilor of Plaridel and eventually, the first mayor of this municipality.[7]
