'''Midsalip''', officially the '''Municipality of Midsalip''' ({{langx|ceb|Lungsod sa Midsalip}}; Subanen: ''Benwa Midsalip''; Chavacano: ''Municipalidad de Midsalip''; {{langx|tl|Bayan ng Midsalip}}), is a municipality in the province of Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 35,643 people.{{PH wikidata|population_reference}}
==Etymology== The town's name is from a Subanen word,"''Migsalip''" which means "to collect" or "accumulate".
==History== Midsalip was formed as a municipality out of 21 barrios of the Municipality of Ramon Magsaysay and 6 barrios of the municipality of Dumingag on September 9, 1964, by virtue of Executive Order Number 94 signed by President Diosdado Macapagal.<ref>{{cite web|title=Executive Order No. 94: Creating the Municipality of Midsalip in the Province of Zamboanga del Sur|url=https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1964/09/04/executive-order-no-94-s-1964/|website=Official Gazette of the Republic of the Philippines|publisher=Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office|accessdate=July 24, 2014|location=Manila, Philippines|date=September 4, 1964}}</ref> This did not last long, however, as it was dissolved on February 26, 1966, due to a Supreme Court decision regarding the legality of the funds disbursed by the municipal treasurer. As a result, Midsalip was reverted to barrio status. It was not until May 8, 1967, when the Republic Act No. 4871 was passed when Midsalip became a regular municipality again.<ref>{{cite web|title=Republic Act No. 4871 - An Act Creating the Municipality of Midsalip in the Province of Zamboanga del Sur|url=http://www.chanrobles.com/republicacts/republicactno4871.html#.U9EK07GDpsk|website=Philippine Laws, Statutes & Codes|publisher=Chan Robles Virtual Law Library|accessdate=July 24, 2014|date=May 8, 1967}}</ref>
