During the midst of Bagyong Ruby and Super Typhoon Yolanda, The barangay was totally devastated. And it is being neglected by the National government until now that it does not get any centavo for the Yolanda Fund for any government projects. The natives are very thankful to Rotary Club of Dasmariñas Makati for the pangkabuhayan project that they have embodied to the resident as well as The Catholic relief service for the housing project.

The first settlement of the Barangay was established on the end part of the Island "DARNASAN", but due to it is not accessible nor it is not ideal for creating a port the native decided to transfer the barangay to 'RAWIS".
