History

From the district of Jolo, it was transformed into a full-pledged municipality on July 1, 1957, under the provision of the Department of Mindanao and Sulu Administrative Code. On March 7, 1984, Talipao was renamed as * Arolas Tulawie* by virtue of Batas Pambansa Blg. 692 but was rejected in a plebiscite.
