Maulong refers to a barangay or village in Catbalogan City, Philippines located between the villages of Payao and Mercedes. It is 518 km southeast of Manila and 2 km from downtown Catbalogan City, the provincial capital of Samar.

Camp Vicente Lukban, Philippine Army, 8th Infantry Division covers a large part of Maulong. Most residents are soldiers because of its close proximity to the camp. The camp is named in honor of a Philippine revolutionary officer, Gen. Vicente Lukbán. The Philippine National Police Headquarters in Region VIII is also located inside the base.
