Lamduan (Thai: ลำดวน) is a district (Amphoe) in the central part of Surin Province, northeastern Thailand.
History
The district goes back to the Mueang Suraphi Nathon Nikhom (สุรพินทรนิคม), which was established in 1871. In 1896 it was converted into the district Lamduan, which was later dissolved.
On January 3, 1977 it was reestablished as a minor district (King Amphoe) by splitting off the two tambon Lamduan and Chok Nuea from Sangkha district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on July 19, 1991.[2]
Geography
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Sikhoraphum, Si Narong, Sangkha, Prasat and Mueang Surin.
Administration
The district is subdivided into 5 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 51 villages (muban). Lamduan Sunphin is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of the tambon Lamduan. There are further 5 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
