Bueng Na Rang (Thai: บึงนาราง) is a district (Amphoe) in the western part of Phichit Province, northern Thailand.
Contents |
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Pho Prathap Chang, Taphan Hin and Pho Thale of Phichit Province, Banphot Phisai of Nakhon Sawan Province and Bueng Samakkhi of Kamphaeng Phet Province.
The minor district was established on July 15, 1996 by splitting off 5 tambon from Pho Thale district[1].
Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15, 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts[2]. With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official [3].
The district is subdivided into 5 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 50 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and 5 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
