Kapalawan, officially the Municipality of Kapalawan (Maguindanaon: Inged nu Kapalawan, Jawi: ; Hiligaynon: Banwa sang Kapalawan; Cebuano: Lungsod sa Kapalawan; Tagalog: Bayan ng Kapalawan), is a municipality in the province of Cotabato, Philippines. The municipality is part of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao despite Cotabato being part of Soccsksargen.
==History== When the Bangsamoro was created in 2019 to supplant the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, 63 barangays in the province of Cotabato were grouped with the newer autonomous region in the second part of the plebiscite held in February 6. The mother municipalities and Cotabato province remained part of Soccsksargen.
