It is geographically situated in the Province of Basilan, on the southwestern part of the island, in close vicinity to Sulu group and Banguingui Isles, making it the third most populous town after Isabela City and Lamitan City, in terms of people living in semi-urban areas. Maluso has beautiful beaches, rivers and dynamic mangrove areas, and also home to different ethnolinguistic tribes such as Yakan, Iranun, Banguingui and Tausug, peaceably living with ''kolono'' groups from different parts of Luzon and Visayas who migrated during the commonwealth era, mostly settled permanently later on. Maluso is one of the core member of [[Western Basilan Alliance]], a group of five municipalities consisted of Maluso, Hji. Muhtamad, Lantawan, Sumisip and Tabuan-Lasa LGUs, sponsored and capacitated by the Spanish government aid agency [[AECID]]-funded "MILAB 2" Project, in partnership with the Provincial Government of Basilan.
On February 27, 2010, about 70 militants of the extremist [[Abu Sayyaf]] group attacked Tubigan village in Maluso, setting fire to homes and killing at least 11 people.<ref name="BBCNews-AbuSayyafRaid">{{cite news|title=Abu Sayyaf militants raid Philippine village|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8540275.stm|accessdate=10 November 2016|work=BBC News|date=27 February 2010|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100302173015/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8540275.stm|archivedate=2 March 2010}}</ref>


On July 1, 2022, it launched its own Flagship program dubbed as ''“Marayaw Maluso: Peace and Eco-Tourism Hub of Southern Philippines"'', primarily focused on three major key areas of peace, environment and tourism. Maluso is home to [[Maluso River]], locally known as “Subah Maluso”, historically tied with its humble beginnings centuries ago, and a known source of freshwater from European sailors and adventurers of the past.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Horsburgh |first1=James |title=India Directory |date=1843 |location=London, England |page=571 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8OJQKid5hPcC&dq=maloza+river&pg=PA571}}</ref>

Maluso, officially the Municipality of Maluso (Tausūg: Dai'rah Lupah Maluso; Chavacano: Municipalidad de Maluso; Tagalog: Bayan ng Maluso), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Basilan, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 45,730 people.[3]

It is geographically situated in the Province of Basilan, on the southwestern part of the island, in close vicinity to Sulu group and Banguingui Isles, making it the third most populous town after Isabela City and Lamitan City, in terms of people living in semi-urban areas. Maluso has beautiful beaches, rivers and dynamic mangrove areas, and also home to different ethnolinguistic tribes such as Yakan, Iranun, Banguingui and Tausug, peaceably living with kolono groups from different parts of Luzon and Visayas who migrated during the commonwealth era, mostly settled permanently later on. Maluso is one of the core member of Western Basilan Alliance, a group of five municipalities consisted of Maluso, Hji. Muhtamad, Lantawan, Sumisip and Tabuan-Lasa LGUs, sponsored and capacitated by the Spanish government aid agency AECID-funded "MILAB 2" Project, in partnership with the Provincial Government of Basilan.

On July 1, 2022, it launched its own Flagship program dubbed as “Marayaw Maluso: Peace and Eco-Tourism Hub of Southern Philippines", primarily focused on three major key areas of peace, environment and tourism. Maluso is home to Maluso River, locally known as “Subah Maluso”, historically tied with its humble beginnings centuries ago, and a known source of freshwater from European sailors and adventurers of the past.[5]
