HistoryKantang was the original capital of Trang Province, at first in Khuan Thani, and then from 1893-1916 in Kantang itself. As the area was prone to flooding, the capital was moved inland to its present location. The city pillar shrine (lak mueang) of Trang is still at its original location at Khuan Thani. GeographyNeighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Sikao, Mueang Trang, and Yan Ta Khao of Trang Province. To the southwest is the Andaman Sea. The district is at the mouth of the Trang River. AdministrationThe district is divided into 14 sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 83 villages (mubans). The town (thesaban mueang) Kantang covers the entire tambon Kantang. There are 13 tambon administrative organizations (TAO) in the district.
EconomyThe Kantang District's chief industry is fishing. The industry is highly concentrated in few hands and has recently come under fire by international organisations for human trafficking, over-fishing, abuse of human rights, and outright murder. An Environmental Justice Foundation video went so far as to name Kanatang's Boonlarp Fishing Partnership, Ltd., as a particularly egregious bad actor.[2][3][4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dopa.go.th/xstat/p5192_01.html|publisher=Department of Provincial Administration|title=Population statistics 2008|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090517024916/http://www.dopa.go.th/xstat/p5192_01.html|archivedate=2009-05-17|df=}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=EJF names Thai firm responsible for murder, slave labor|url=https://www.undercurrentnews.com/2015/11/30/ejf-names-thai-firm-responsible-for-murder-slave-labor/|accessdate=2 December 2015|work=Undercurrent News|date=2015-11-30|subscription=yes}} 3. ^{{cite book|title=Thailand's Seafood Slaves; Human Trafficking, Slavery and Murder in Kantang's Fishing Industry|date=2015|publisher=Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF)|location=London|isbn=978-1-904523-37-6|url=https://ejfoundation.org//resources/downloads/EJF-Thailand-Seafood-Slaves-low-res.pdf|accessdate=2 December 2015}} 4. ^{{cite video|title=Thailand's Seafood Slaves |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bo35uvxPXPw |website=YouTube |publisher=Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) |accessdate=19 August 2018 |format=Video}} External links
