History

Historically Mong Yai was the capital of South Hsenwi state. Sao Hso Holm, ex-saopha of Mongyai was one of the founders of Shan Nationalities League for Democracy in October 1988.[3] Khun Sa was born in Loi Maw of Mongyai Township at 17 February 1934.[4]

There were several skirmishes between Myanmar Army and Shan State Army in Mongyai during 2011.[5] On 12 July 2024, the Shan State Progress Party took control of the town after the military ceded it to prevent fighting spilling over from Operation 1027.[6]
