Subdistrict and Muban area demarcation

December 3 two announcements were published in the Royal Gazette, both about the boundaries of either subdistrict or administrative villages. The first one lists three subdistricts in San Sai district, Chiang Mai, and together with the list of the villages within them also defines the current boundaries. The three subdistricts are

• San Na Meng (ตำบลสันนาเม็ง), 12 villages
• San Phranet (ตำบลสันพระเนตร), 7 villages
• San Sai Noi (ตำบลสันทรายน้อย), 10 villages

More interesting is the second one, titled ประกาศจังหวัดกาญจนบุรี เรื่อง การเปลี่ยนแปลงเขตท้องที่ (เขตหมู่บ้าน) - Announcement by Kanchanaburi province on local area changes (Areas of villages). In this, the areas of the two administrative villages 12 Ban Kradon Phrong (บ้านกระดอนโพรง) and 15 Ban Don Sam Lang (บ้านดอนสามหลัง) get changed. The reason for this is the fact that village 12 was partially under the jurisdiction of Phra Thaen subdistrict municipality ( เทศบาลตำบลพระแท่น), whereas the other part is under the subdistrict administrative organization (TAO) Phra Thaen (องค์การบริหารส่วนตำบลพระแท่น). Judging from the Muban list of the TAO, this however wasn't the only Muban shared between both, as otherwise the single male resident of village 7 Ban Kradon Phrong (บ้านกระโดนโพรง) would be very strange.
