Bombon, officially the Municipality of Bombon (Central Bikol: Banwaan kan Bombon; Tagalog: Bayan ng Bombon), is a municipality in the province of Camarines Sur, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 17,995 people.[3]

History

Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Parish Church

Like any other municipalities in the province, the town of Bombon also started as a mere barrio or "visita". It was dependent on the town of the ancient Quipayo for nearly 240 years, now a mere barangay of Calabanga town. It finally gained its independence during the arrival of the Americans on February 11, 1900. This taste of freedom was, however, momentary for after the establishment of the Civil Government occurred in the Philippines in the year 1903, Bombon was ceded to the municipality of Calabanga .

The municipality of Bombon also became a barrio of Magarao, now another town in the second district. For more than forty years of waiting, it was finally given its proclamation as a town by virtue of Executive Order (EO) 251 dated July 27, 1949 signed by the then President Elpidio Quirino. Appointed officials are Jose Buenagua Sr, Mayor; Juan Nale, Casiano Aburro, Manuel Rojo, and Julian Sumangid, Councilors. Jose Buenagua Jr went on to be the Provincial Engineer of Albay. Jose Jr now resides in Scottsdale AZ. He had also two daughters, Irene Buenagua Fernandez and Lydia Buenagua Guerrero, both retired teachers, and three other sons, Salvador, Melchor, and Diogenes Buenagua who are all still residing in Bombon. The acquired independence continued permanently and it served well its constituents. Foundation Anniversary celebrated every August 13.

In 1993, by EO no. 102 of President Fidel V. Ramos, Bombon was included in the creation of the Metro Naga Development Council together with Bula, Calabanga, Camaligan, Canaman, Gainza, Magarao, Milaor, Minalabac, Ocampo, Pamplona, Pasacao, Pili, and San Fernando, all in the province of Camarines Sur.

"Bombon" was once an old name of Taal Lake in Batangas illustrated in a 1885 antique map. Batangas was first came to be known as Bombon also.

The Leaning Bell Tower, dubbed as the country's own version of Italy 's Leaning Tower of Pisa, found in this municipality serves as a major historical attraction.

Due to its extreme proximity to Calabanga's town proper usually Bombonenos go to Calabanga for trade and buying while leaving the town behind.

Despite staying as a fourth class municipality more developments are happening in town, this was made possible by the local government of the town, including the government of Camarines Sur. Being strategically located in two booming municipalities the town of Calabanga in the north and Naga City to the south the town itself is already a small growing municipality. Its proximity to Naga City is also one of the reasons why there are developments in Bombon.
