Cao Bang shares a borderline of over 300km with Chinese localities. Numerous border posts are deployed along the borderline to protect national sovereignty. Among them, the Border Post of Tra Linh International Border Gate is tasked with managing over 27km of the border in Quang Han, Tri Phuong, and Xuan Noi communes, and Tra Linh townlet.
In the unit's managed area, the majority of ethnic people strictly adhere to the Party's guidelines and State’s policies. However, many ethnic minority individuals in border areas still encounter challenges; the poverty rate stays high, the educational levels are low, and certain outdated customs persist.
