The Jinghpaw people are an ethnic group who are the largest subset of the Kachin peoples, which largely inhabit the Kachin Hills in northern Myanmar's Kachin State and neighbouring Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture of China and Northeastern India's Arunachal Pradesh and Assam. While they mostly live in Myanmar, the Kachin are called the Jinghpaw in China and Singpho in India (Chinese: 景颇族; pinyin: Jǐngpō zú; Burmese: ဂျိန်းဖော; also Jinghpaw or Singpho; endonyms: Jinghpaw, Tsaiva, Lechi, Theinbaw, Singfo, Chingpaw) — the terms are considered synonymous. The greater name for all the Kachin peoples in their own Jinghpaw language is the Jinghpaw.
