History
The municipality was created through Executive Order No. 223, signed by President Ramon Magsaysay on December 28, 1956, consisting twenty-six barrios and sitios of Kabasalan, including Barrio Siay which was designated as the seat of government, and another six in Malangas, all then located in Zamboanga del Sur.
Siay had its territory reduced in November 1977 with the detachment of twenty-two barangays; thirteen were organized into the new municipality of Payao, while another nine, along with parts of Malangas and Alicia, were constituted into Imelda.
