History


The minor district (king amphoe) Khuan Kalong was established on 1 June 1969 by splitting the three tambons Thung Nui, Pae-ra, and Tha Phae from Mueang Satun district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 8 September 1976.[2] On 1 June 1976 the two southwestern tambons of the district were split off to form Tha Phae Minor district. In 1996 the northwestern part was split off to form Manang district
