South Ubian Municipality

The remote island of Tabawan in the municipality of South Ubian, Tawi-Tawi, is teeming with indigenous heritage properties worthy of being preserved, conserved and sustained, as these reflect this rich and largely unknown patrimony that forms part of the Filipino identity.

Because of this, the local government, led by Mayor Hadzri Matba, has declared a number of tangible and intangible properties in town—mostly in Tabawan—as recognized cultural heritage assets through municipal Ordinance No. 14, Series 2020 passed in November 2020.
