As of 15 November, the district had disbursed 42.48 per cent of its allocated public investment funds. However, disbursement levels for several projects remained low.

Mường Nhé District has requested provincial authorities and related departments to allocate sufficient mid-term public investment funds for 2021–2025, prioritising district-managed local budget balances. The district also sought funding for infrastructure improvements and the upgrading of National Highway 4H.

Mường Nhé District leaders clarify several issues during the working session.

During the working session with Mường Nhé District, representatives from provincial departments clarified several issues, including housing and production land for ethnic minorities, unresolved land allocation for public investment projects, district budget revenue and expenditure, and the disbursement rates for national target programmes.
