Non Sombun (Thai: โนนสมบูรณ์, in Thai pronounced as /nōːn sǒm.būːn/) is a tambon (subdistrict) of Ban Haet District, Khon Kaen Province, northeast Thailand (Isan). It is a hometown of Somluck Kamsing, a first Thai Olympic gold medalist.

History

Originally, Non Sombun was a muban (village) of Ban Pao, Ban Phai District, south of Mueang Khon Kaen District, Khon Kaen capital district. Later in 1985, Non Sombun Subdistrict was officially established with the Non Sombun Subdistrict Council as an administrator.

In 1995, the king amphoe (กิ่งอำเภอ, "minor district") Ban Haet was established. So Non Sombun moved up directly to the newly established minor district. Later, on January 19, 1996, the Ministry of Interior established Subdistrict Administrative Organization Non Sombun (SAO Non Sombun) in the administrative network of Ban Haet District until the present.[1]
