History of Morong
Morong was previously known as Moron. On June 10, 1955, it got its name Morong by virtue of Republic Act No. 1249.
In 1976, the construction Bataan Nuclear Power Plant started and finished in 1985 at a cost of $2 billion. However, President Corazon Aquino thumbed down its opening due to strong opposition of many sectors including local residents.
