Bang Sao Thong ( _th. บางเสาธง) is a district ("Amphoe") of Samut Prakan Province in central Thailand.

Geography

Neighboring districts are Lat Krabang (Bangkok) to the North, Bang Bo to the East and Bang Phli to the West.

History

Bang Phli New Town (Thai "Mueang Mai Bang Phli") was established between 1992 to 1993 as a residential area for high-income families. The area around the new town comprising three "tambon" was then split off from Bang Phli district and formed the new minor district ("King Amphoe"), becoming effective on April 1 1995 [cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=112|issue=Special 9 ง|pages=61|title=ประกาศกระทรวงมหาดไทย เรื่อง แบ่งเขตท้องที่อำเภอบางพลี จังหวัดสมุทรปราการ ตั้งเป็นกิ่งอำเภอบางเสาธง|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2538/E/009/61.PDF|date=March 22 1995|language=Thai] .

The new town covers about 20,000 homes and can hold more than 100,000 people. There is also a complex of public facilities directly east of the town. Across the Bang Phli New Town Road east of these facilities are office buildings.

Following a decision of the Thai government on May 15 2007, all of the 81 minor districts were to be upgraded to full districts [cite news|url=http://www.manager.co.th/Politics/ViewNews.aspx?NewsID=9500000055625|publisher=Manager Online|title=แถลงผลการประชุม ครม. ประจำวันที่ 15 พ.ค. 2550|language=Thai] . With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official [cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=124|issue=46 ก|pages=14–21|title=พระราชกฤษฎีกาตั้งอำเภอฆ้องชัย...และอำเภอเหล่าเสือโก้ก พ.ศ. ๒๕๕๐|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2550/A/046/14.PDF|date=August 24 2007|language=Thai] .

Administration

The district is subdivided into 3 subdistricts ("tambon"), which are further subdivided into 39 villages ("muban"). Bang Sao Thong is a township ("thesaban tambon") which covers parts of "tambon" Bang Sao Thong and Sisa Chorakhe Yai. Each of the tambon has a Tambon administrative organization (TAO) responsible for the non-municipal area.
