The village of Siabu is one of the villages which still maintain the traditional values is divided into three Datuk as the ruler of the ulayat area and natural resources, namely Datuk Bandaro Hitam, Datuk Besar and Datuk Rajo Melayu.

Natural tourism consists of waterfalls of three estuaries of the Lipay River and Muaro Siabu campground located in the area of Datuk Bandaro Hitam’s authority.
