Kho Laen was one of the three oldest subdistricts (tambon) of the Buntharik district, together with Phon Ngam and Huai Kha. In 1973, the tambon's half-western area became an independent subdistrict, Na Pho, by absorbing seven other villages in the surrounding area.[2] The newly established subdistrict was also separated in 1987 to create the Ban Maet subdistrict.[4]
In the early era, the tambon was governed by the Subdistrict Council of Kho Laen until it was promoted to the
Geography
The tambon covers 244.54 km2 and is located in the northeastern region of the Buntharik district. The eastern part has undulating terrain and the highland of the Dângrêk Mountains, which form the border between Thailand and Laos, while the western is a lowland alternating with some parts of the upland and some are the Lam Dom Noi river basins.[3]
Administration
The subdistrict of Kho Laen is divided into 15 villages (mubans; หมู่บ้าน), three of which, Kho Laen, Domg Moei, and Nong Bua, each was further divided into two community groups (Mu; หมู่),[1] Since 2008, the Kho Laen Subdistrict Municipality (เทศบาลตำบลคอแลน; Kho Laen Township) has been the local government responding to administer the area.[1][3]
As of the 2021 census, it had a population of 13,260 people with 4,113 households. The following is a list of the subdistrict's mubans, which roughly correspond to the villages.[1]
