Saw Maung (Burmese: စောမောင်; pronounced [sɔ́ màʊɰ̃]; 5 December 1928 – 24 July 1997) was a Burmese military leader and statesman who served as Chairman of the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC) and Prime Minister of Burma from 1988 until 1992, when he was deposed by rival generals who disapproved Saw Maung decisions that were in favor of Aung San Suu Kyi.

As a high-ranking member of the Burma Socialist Programme Party (BSPP), he provided continuity of leadership during a succession of short-lived predecessors that followed the toppling of Ne Win earlier in 1988.

Saw Maung assumed responsibility as chairman of the newly formed State Law and Order Restoration Council(SLORC) on 18 September 1988, replacing the Burma Socialist Programme Party (BSPP) and promised multi-party elections to follow soon.

He publicly stated that he would hand over power to the winning party and would have the army return to the barracks; where in his own words they "rightfully belonged".

The 1990 parliamentary elections were won by the National League for Democracy (NLD) led by Aung San Suu Kyi.
