Introduction of Kg Lagau [Malay Version]:

Kampung Lagau terletak kira-kira 4.7 kilometer dari Pekan Bangar. Sejarah penamaan kampung ini mengikut cerita lisan dari orang-orang tua juga dinamakan oleh Puak Murut. Menurut cerita mereka, kononnya pada suatu masa tertentu penduduk kampung terdengar bunyi suara seperti orang melagau(memanggil) dari arah sebuah bukit berdekatan kampung itu dan selang beberapa hari akan ada orang meninggal dunia (menurut kepercayaan puak Murut). Sekarang kepercayaan tersebut tidak ada lagi dan berdasarkan cerita inilah kampung ini dikenali sebagai Kampung Lagau. Kampung Lagau mempunyai penduduk seramai 82 orang dan terdapat 17 buah rumah di kampung ini. Kebanyakkan penduduknya terdiri dari Puak Murut dan tujuh orang penduduk dari keluarga cina. Di kampung ini terdapat sebuah bengkel kereta yang memberi perkhidmatan membaiki kereta, mencuci kereta, ‘servicing’ kereta dan lain-lain, yang dimiliki oleh salah seorang penduduk kampung yang berbangsa Cina. https://mpkbelingos.wordpress.com/sejarah-kampung/

Lagau means to call according to Murut people.
