Muong Nhe is a border district of Dien Bien with complex terrains. As the district shares border with Laos and China, it holds strategic significance. For a long time, the people in Muong Nhe has close relations with those living on the other side of the shared borderlines.  

Muong Nhe is now home to 10 different ethnic minority groups, of which the Mong ethnic group accounts for over 70%. Most of the district’s current population has moved in from the neighboring provinces of Lai Chau, Son La, Lao Cai Ha Giang and Yen Bai.

Thanks to the support policies of the Party and State and efforts of the local authorities and people, the economic, social and cultural situation in the district has been gradually improved.
