History

[edit]

The municipality was created by a royal decree that took effect on 29 November 1936 and was then named Khu Khan after the province.[3] The municipality covered the subdistricts of Mueang Nuea and Mueang Tai, with the area of 3.26 km2.[3]

On 6 March 1939, the municipality was renamed Sisaket, following the renaming of the province the year before.[4]

On 12 March 1987, the municipality was extended to parts of Cham, Nong Khrok, Pho, Phon kha, and Ya Plong Subdistricts, with the total area of 36.66 km2.[5]
