Lamduan (Thai: ลำดวน, pronounced [lām.dūa̯n]) is a district (amphoe) in the central part of Surin province, northeastern Thailand.

History

[edit]

The district dates back to the Mueang Suraphinthanikhom (สุรพินทนิคม), which was established in 1871. In 1896 it was converted into the district Lamduan, which was later dissolved.

On 3 January 1977 it was reestablished as a minor district (king amphoe) by splitting off the two tambons, Lamduan and Chok Nuea, from Sangkha district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 19 July 1991.[2]

Geography

[edit]

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise): Sikhoraphum, Si Narong, Sangkha, Prasat and Mueang Surin.

Administration

[edit]

The district is divided into five sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 51 villages (mubans). Lamduan Sunphin is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Lamduan. There are a further five tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
