Endangered ethnic medicine needs more protection

"How can you expect them to learn it when they do not even bother to take a look at it?" he says.

In China, there are only about 1,000 doctors practicing this obscure branch of medicine, with about 300 working in Jingxi, according to official statistics.

Without systematic teaching materials and professional training, it is hard to keep the ethnic medicine wheel rolling, Zhao says, adding that insufficient funds also stand in the way of its development.

Preservation efforts

To protect the endangered ethnic medicine, Guangxi's regional government passed a regulation in 2008 stipulating that local governments should increase funds for Zhuang medicine development and that medicinal herbs should be protected to avoid extinction.

In recent years, the Jingxi government also has promulgated a series of regulations which greatly encourage local farmers to grow medicinal herbs.

Another thing that hampers Zhuang medicine's survival chances is a lack of manufacturing companies, says Sun Youming, director of Jingxi's Chinese medicinal herb office.

"We are mulling preferential policies to attract more enterprises into the field," Sun says.

In addition, Jingxi has stuck to the long-held tradition of holding a medicinal herb fair annually. Each year, vendors from across the country come to sell precious herbs and exchange ideas on the development of the Zhuang medicine during the Dragon Boat Festival. This year's festival, which fell from June 10-12, was no different.

Jingxi is also building a distribution center to allow more medicinal herb transactions. The 1.1-billion-yuan project, to be completed by the end of this year, is expected to greatly boost sales of medicinal herbs.

But that is not enough, warns Jing Jun, a sociology professor at Tsinghua University. "What's really important is to have the younger generation learn Zhuang medicine."

"Zhuang medicine is part of our traditional culture, and the young people should be encouraged to preserve it," the academic believes.

Jing suggests more funds be allocated in building Zhuang medicine schools and compiling books to enhance its reputation.

"I hope that more people will get to know Zhuang medicine better and help preserve it because it is an important part of our traditional Chinese culture," says Zhao Miaoyuan.
