A population of Bugis who are known to be Muslims come from Masamba.[3] A number of these Islamic Bugis moved out of the village into Rompo in the 1940s and into the lowlands of the region into Tabalu and Saatu in the 1950s and 1960s.[4] Rattan trading and making is said to be important to the local economy.[5] Coconuts are also grown near the coast in this region of Sulawesi.
