There are 3 villages in the Santaishan area. All three are farming villages:
Han Chinese village
Jingpo village
De’ang village
The Jingpo and De’ang are ethnic minority groups. Larger populations of both of these ethnic groups are found in Myanmar (Burma) more than in China. The Han Chinese have the highest living standards of the three groups, so there are less cultural roadblocks to development for them.
