Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has called for the development and diversification of traditional medicine services and products, enhancing the quality of traditional medicine services linked to healthcare and tourism.
Under Decision 1289/QD-TTg dated October 28, the PM has underscored the necessity to raise awareness of the development of Vietnam's traditional medicine sector and the Vietnam Oriental Medicine Association in the next few years.
To implement the plan, the decision mandates the development and improvement of databases on medicinal materials and traditional medicaments integrated with national and specialized databases as well as the establishment of an information database on traditional medicine services and products to serve tourists.
The Premier also emphasized the need to focus on building and promoting the image and brand of Vietnam's traditional medicine in the international market.
Partnerships with international organizations, regional groups and nations, particularly those with advanced traditional medicine sectors, should be strengthened to attract investment, noted the PM.- (VLLF)
