Seize the opportunity of Globalization and promote the internationalization of traditional Chinese Medicine

The variety protection system of traditional Chinese medicine plays an increasingly important role in the internationalization of proprietary Chinese medicine by establishing big brands and enterprises. In the future, we should further improve the regulations on the Protection of varieties of traditional Chinese Medicine, encourage innovation, speed up the modernization of varieties of traditional Chinese medicine, and cultivate internationally competitive multinational companies of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to promote the internationalization of proprietary Chinese medicine.

Strengthen the publicity of traditional Chinese medicine

First of all, full attention should be paid to the cultural differences between Chinese and western medicine. It is a very important factor affecting the large-scale development of traditional Chinese medicine to the world market, which is reflected in the different theories of traditional Chinese and western medicine, different attitudes towards philosophical knowledge, different modes of thinking, and different research methods.

Secondly, traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine should not be neglected. Western medicine has micro-accuracy but no macro-two-way regulation, so it can be used for group treatment, while traditional Chinese medicine can be treated according to syndrome differentiation, which varies from person to person, and has the unique characteristics of individual drug use. Traditional Chinese medicine research is the method of clinical practice, while the method of western medicine research is the laboratory. Although animal experiments are controllable and scientific, the conclusions drawn by animal laboratories are not entirely applicable to clinical observation data.

Third, strengthen the promotion of traditional Chinese medicine and spread the culture of traditional Chinese medicine. In foreign countries, especially by making use of Confucius Institutes, we will vigorously carry out formal education in traditional Chinese medicine, spread Chinese traditional culture, train talents in traditional Chinese medicine, and improve the overall level of traditional Chinese medicine; on the other hand, attract foreign students to come to China to study traditional Chinese medicine, and set up model hospitals in foreign countries to vigorously promote the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a science tested by practice for thousands of years. Traditional Chinese medicine has its unique advantages, long history, systematic theory, rich practice, vast literature and refined prescriptions. The theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine has two basic characteristics: one is the overall concept, and the other is syndrome differentiation and treatment. The advantage of traditional Chinese medicine lies in the emphasis on the unity of man and nature, overall syndrome differentiation, the use of compound medicine, and the synergistic action of drugs to restrict the toxic and side effects and maximize the positive effects of drugs.

Seizing the opportunity of Globalization to promote the internationalization of traditional Chinese Medicine

First of all, economic globalization brings opportunities for the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine. Since the 1970s, economic globalization began to be surging, setting off a round of waves. Multinational corporations have become an important carrier of economic globalization and carry out industrial transfer around the world, including the pharmaceutical industry, which provides an important opportunity for the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Secondly, returning to nature provides opportunities for the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine. In recent years, many developed economies have sought a green economy and returned to nature to make more use of plant medicine, which has brought another important opportunity for the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine enterprises strive to study the new situation of the international market and the international policies and regulations on the management of natural medicines, and seize the opportunity to promote traditional Chinese medicine to the international pharmaceutical market by taking advantage of the world trend of "returning to nature".

Third, the traditional Chinese medicine industry should seize the opportunity to carry out internationalization. We should aim at the popular trend of the international Chinese herbal medicine market, grasp the characteristics of natural medicine, develop new products in line with the international market, and promote the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine. Transform the existing pharmaceutical industry equipment, fully implement GMP management, take high-tech and new products as the starting point, optimize the product structure, launch high-quality, sophisticated and cutting-edge products, form large-scale production, and promote the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine products.

Strengthen inter-governmental exchanges, communication and cooperation to accelerate the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine

First, we should make use of international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) to strengthen international cooperation and strive for the understanding and support of WHO and governments of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to promote the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Second, strengthen the management of traditional medicine, the production of traditional Chinese medicine products must meet the national GMP standards, at the same time, the government to strengthen negotiations between countries to maintain the legal international status of traditional Chinese medicine.

Third, in bilateral agreements and regional agreements, the government provides conditions for the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine as far as possible. For example, using the China-ASEAN Free Trade area, the Chinese government and countries rich in medicinal resources, such as Indonesia, jointly set up medicinal animal and plant cultivation bases to make full use of local species resources. cooperation between countries also helps to spread culture, simplify drug import procedures and speed up the legislative process.

Fourth, government departments actively guide the development direction of traditional Chinese medicine in the world. China can initiate the establishment of the World traditional Medicine Industry Coordination Committee to play a leading role in the exchange, cooperation and development of traditional Chinese medicine all over the world, and speed up the formulation of experimental standards for traditional Chinese medicine products in line with international standards. To formulate safety rules for traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine products with international standards, consideration can be given to making public the literature of traditional Chinese medicine and translating it into a variety of texts.

Fifth, strengthen international cooperation in scientific research and deepen the understanding and application of traditional Chinese medicine. We should make use of various channels and opportunities to promote traditional Chinese medicine with traditional Chinese medicine and strengthen international academic exchanges and scientific research cooperation. For example, we should jointly run schools with famous foreign universities to carry out training for talents of traditional Chinese medicine, cooperate with foreign research institutions, clarify the principles of traditional Chinese medicine with modern scientific knowledge and methods, and develop traditional Chinese medicine products. Jointly run hospitals with government agencies or local organizations to establish various forms of clinical bases, so as to fully demonstrate the advantages of Chinese medicine, promote the progress of Chinese medicine and the discipline of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in western countries, and expand the international influence of Chinese medicine.

It can be predicted that traditional Chinese medicine will also enter the international market in a variety of ways.
