Nhon Mai border commune, Nghe An province has a large natural area, infrastructure, traffic routes, and civil works are still limited. The settlement in the area is mainly ethnic minorities, the level of awareness is uneven, and life is still difficult.

Together with the local authorities, the forces, officers and soldiers of Nhon Mai Border Guard Station have made many contributions to helping people eliminate hunger and reduce poverty.
