Na Suang (Thai: นาส่วง) is a tambon (subdistrict) of Det Udom District, in Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand.[1][2][3] In 2021, it had a population of 9,044 people.[2] Neighbouring subdistricts are (clockwise from the south) Pa Mong, Sa Saming, Mueang Si Khai, Na Di, Na Yia, and Na Rueang.[3]
The region was first settled in the 1640s, the first settlement was located in the current location of Na Suang village and gained subdistrict status in 1892.[4] While the Na Suang subdistrict is much older, the Sukhaphiban Na Suang (สุขาภิบาลนาส่วง) as the local administration unit was established in the central region of the tambon in 1963, covered Na Suang and Pa Muang villages, as well as some portions of Kut Yang and Na Huay Khaen, 3.40 km2 in total.[1] Effective May 25, 2009, it was upgraded to a subdistrict municipality. The remaining area, around 52 km2, has been governed by another local government, the Subdistrict Administrative Organization of Na Suang.[3]
The tambon were cut off to establish new subdistricts three times including in 1947 to creat Na Yia,[5] in 1966 to creat Na Charoen,[6] and in 1988 to create Pa Mong.[7]
