Poverty Incidence of Magsaysay Source: Philippine Statistics Authority[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] The modern-day municipality traces back its origins to the town of Cuyo.

After the arrival of the representative of the Province of Calamianes from Bulacan in the last days of 1898, there was not much change in leadership in the entire archipelago of Cuyo and Palawan.

Thus, Padon and his family fled back to Iloilo and thus for the second time the attempt to join the state and the church was frustrated.

[21] This republic was not long in coming when the Province of Calamianes was organized by the Americans on 23 June 1902 under Philippine Commission Act No.

[20] A marker of Don Casiano Padon currently exists on the municipality of Magsaysay in commemoration of the foundation of the Lucbuan Republic.
