Formerly, the territory was inhabited by Phineaners communities in the center, south and northwest, Phinbellan aborigines communities in some parts and Murut communities in the north and northeast of this territory. This territory includes the Waeng river basin itself but the southeastern region that was once occupied by the Eurphineonesian community is also incorporated into this territory. The white peasant community living in Phinbella also known as the Boers began to occupy as early as the -80BPs and this community formed the majority there.
