Si Hua (), a chief of
Mongmit chiefdom, contributed to the
Ming-Burmese War. Then Ming dynasty canonized him to be the
Tongzhi (, vice magistrate) of Mongmit
Xuanfusi. Because Si Hua occupied the area of Manmo (
Bhamo), his title is also called '
Manmo Xuanfu Tongzhi'''
(). Yunnan governor Zhou Jiamo () suggested to settle him in Mengmao (Ruili). Ming central government agreed with this suggestion in 1611. After Qing dynasty controlled Yunnan, Manmo Xuanfu Tongzhi
renamed Mengmao Anfusi'' in 1659 officially. In
Republic of China period, the central government used many of method try to abolish chiefdom system, for example, established a direct control government "Ruili Administrate Bureau" (). But chiefdom of Mengmao allied with other chiefdoms to resist the abolishment. At its worst, chiefdoms had a consideration for independent from China. Finally, the central government compromised with chiefdoms. After
People's Republic of China controlled this area, the central government launched the
Chinese Land Reform Movement. Chiefdom of Mengmao lost his power and land, finally abolished in 1955. ==References==
