Mangyans were the first to inhabit the island of Mindoro.
The Mangyans are composed of twelve tribes, each with its own language, culture, and way of life comprising 10% of the whole Mindoro population.
There are the Iraya, Batangan, Buid, Hanuno'o, Alangan, Ratagnon, Tadyawan, Bangon, Pula, Buhid, Nauhan, and Furuan.
They lived peacefully along the coastal areas of Oriental Mindoro for centuries and they fished for a living. That was until migrants from nearby islands settled on the island. To avoid disputes, the mild-mannered and peace-loving people gave up their land, moved to the mountains, and came down only for food and other necessities. They survive by farming root crops and fruits, which is the only livelihood they know.

You may find the crowds of these people
while Christmas day, New Year, Holy week & other occasions at all places of Sabang Beach

And every resort, there is Jeepney trip service to visit Mangyan places on the mountain with their customers.
