Chinese officials promote TCM abroad

Du Xiangdong, general manager of Botanical Division 2nd Bussiness Dept., China MEHECO Corporation:

"The main market of TCM enterprises is domestically within China due to the largest consuming population, the deepest cultural foundation, and the commonest practice of Chinese medicine herein. Although they show great interest in the world market, they are concerned with the imbalance of input and output manifest in the current TCM trade overseas. So the key issue is that TCM culture has not become popular yet in Europe and the rest of the world. This leads to the limited scale of our TCM export trade."
