Sai Mun ((タイ語:ทรายมูล)) is a district of Yasothon Province in northeastern Thailand. ==History== Sai Mun village was formerly a village of Amphoe Yasothon, when it was still part of Ubon Ratchathani Province. The village changed locations around the time of King Rama V when an epidemic caused villagers to abandon their homes and start a new village two kilometers away. At the site of their new village, which is present-day Sai Mun village, the villagers brought sand and soil from various sacred and revered places, and scattered it around the perimeter of their new home, to drive off the epidemic. It was from this ceremony that the village received its name. Later, Sai Mun was given ''tambon'' status, and in 1968, Sanitary District (''khet sukhaphiban'') Sai Mun was created. After the separation of Yasothon from Ubon in 1972, on May 15, 1975, Sai Mun was elevated to a minor district (''king amphoe''), taking four ''tambon'' from Amphoe Mueang Yasothon: Sai Mun, Du Lat, Dong Mafai and Na Wiang. In 1978, ''tambon'' Phai was reassigned from Amphoe Kut Chum to King Amphoe Sai Mun. On July 26, 1984, the minor district was elevated to a district, and May 25, 1999 Sanitary District Sai Mun was elevated to township (''thesaban tambon'') status. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sai Mun District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
