"Belt and Road Initiative" promotes the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry and opens up overseas markets.

At present, the raw materials of pharmaceutical refining in many countries come from Chinese herbal medicines or pieces of traditional Chinese medicine. The annual export volume of these two materials alone can reach 200000 tons, with an export value of more than 1 billion US dollars. For details, the following is an analysis of the current situation of the traditional Chinese medicine industry in 2015.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Industry expands overseas Market with the help of "Belt and Road Initiative"

It should be said that traditional Chinese medicine and prepared slices of traditional Chinese medicine have the longest export history. This export is about 200000 tons per year, more than 1 billion US dollars. Basically, we basically do not have these bulk exported medicinal materials locally. With the help of the development of "Belt and Road Initiative", it will promote China's traditional Chinese medicine industry to further expand overseas markets.

Belt and Road Initiative is the main area for the development of traditional Chinese medicine, and these areas are very welcome to this traditional Chinese medicine. This is also a relatively long-term development plan, and Chinese medicine should also tie in with the development, and then it will play a certain role in promoting the export of medicinal materials, and we are also making some arrangements. Hope that there will be more enterprises and more products going out.

"Belt and Road Initiative" is the concept and initiative of international cooperation and development, relying on the bilateral and multilateral mechanisms of China and relevant countries to tap the potential of markets in the region, promote investment and consumption, and create demand and employment.

In the production workshop of Anhui Guangyintang traditional Chinese Medicine Co., Ltd., which is one of the top five enterprises in the country, countless production lines of traditional Chinese medicine slices are busy at full capacity, after the staff sorting, packing and other links, bags of beautifully packaged Chinese herbal slices will be sold to Southeast Asia and other countries.

With the increase of export volume, the most direct feedback is the increase in economic benefits. As a pillar industry with the pharmaceutical industry as the pillar industry, the construction and implementation of "Belt and Road Initiative" has brought new opportunities for the development of the traditional Chinese medicine industry in this famous pharmaceutical capital. Lu Wenguang, deputy director of the Bozhou Municipal Bureau of Commerce, said: in the first half of this year alone, the total import and export volume of the Bozhou pharmaceutical industry reached 103 million US dollars, an increase of 40 per cent.

"Belt and Road Initiative" is a great benefit to the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry. However, at present, traditional Chinese medicine in China is still faced with problems such as the exhaustion of species resources, the reduction of employees, the malicious hype caused by the instability of market supply and demand, and the raising of prices. At this time, the export of traditional Chinese medicine is mainly artificially planted. At that time, medicine farmers can make targeted adjustments.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, many of our plants can actually be used for medicinal purposes, but also very good Chinese herbal medicines, we have not excavated them, we have excavated them, if as a supplement, then we can certainly cure diseases and save lives.
