Chuen Chom (Thai: ชื่นชม) is a district (Amphoe) in the north of Maha Sarakham Province, northeastern Thailand.
Geography
Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise) Chiang Yuen of Maha Sarakham Province, Sam Sung and Kranuan of Khon Kaen Province, Huai Mek and Yang Talat of Kalasin Province.
