[edit] History

The minor district (king amphoe) Mae Kaen was formed on November 15 1973 by splitting the two tambon Sai Thong and Mai Kaen from Sai Buri district.[1] On July 4 1994 it was upgraded to a full district.[2]

[edit] Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise) Mueang Narathiwat and Bacho of Narathiwat Province and Sai Buri of Pattani Province. To the east is the Gulf of Thailand.

[edit] Administration

The district is subdivided into 4 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 17 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and 3 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
