June 8th, 2009 - According to a related responsible person from the State Traditional Chinese Medicine management bureau a cooperation with the Ministry of Commerce will commence to promote TCM  trade.

TCM is a unique highlight of Chinese trade. From 2007, the Chinese TCM management bureau and the Ministry of Commerce conducted special studies and submitted proposals to the State Council, urging the launch of policies to promote TCM trade.

The promotion over Chinese Medicine overseas will consist of supporting outstanding Chinese TCM doctors to open overseas clinics or assist foreigners with receiving TCM healtcare services in China. (Source: China High-Tech Industry Herald)
