Abstract

The phenomenon of cross-border migrant labor force on the border between China and Myanmar is very common, especially at Ruili Port, which borders Myanmar. Beginning with Ruili, the number of inflows of Myanmar nationality has been gradually decreasing and distributed to the surrounding areas or the mainland of China. In this context, Myanmar's agricultural mobility has gradually flowed to Mengyang Town, which is centralized and typical imagination. A large number of Burmese labor force has made up for the lack of agricultural labor force in Mengyang Town. At the same time, due to various policy constraints, they have to be aware of their identity.
