Members of the delegation request Mường Nhé District to provide more information on border security, ethnic security, and drug prevention efforts.

Regarding administrative restructuring and streamlining, by March 2025, Mường Nhé district had completed the process, reducing the number of specialized agencies under the district People’s Committee from 13 to 10.
