Na Krasaeng (Thai: นากระแซง) is a tambon (subdistrict) of Det Udom District, in Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand.[1][2][3][4] In 2021, it had a population of 13,602 people.[1] Neighbouring subdistricts are (clockwise from the south) Nong Om, Thung Thoeng, Khok Sawang, Na Charoen, and Som Sa-at.[2]
The region was first settled in 1934 by five household villagers who evacuated from Khum village (บ้านคุ้ม) in Warin Chamrap district; a new village was unofficially called "Nong Khee Kwai" (หนองขี้ควาย; Cow dung pond's village), after the feature of the pond nearby.[3] Later in 1945, the community size increased to 60–70 households, and the district government of Det Udom then renamed it "Na Krasaeng," after the runnel name formed in the area, as well as officially registering it as a new village under the control of Som Sa-at subdistrict.[3] After that, the village was transferred to be a member of the Thung Thoeng subdistrict, then to Nong Om and Na Charoen, until it obtained subdistrict status in 1983.[3][4]
