    Understanding of Chinese medicine is a cultural treasure of the Chinese people for thousands of years more and more; understanding of Chinese medicine is the essence of the medical benefit of mankind more and more people; to the inclusion of acupuncture as a sign the world's intangible cultural heritage, the world's understanding of Chinese medicine more and more people.

    This is an era of progress.

    To this end, I came as a Chinese family's fifth generation descendant, on how to inherit and develop traditional Chinese medicine the Chinese nation, made eight suggestions.

    One. Must be corrected for a long period of strong bias in medicine, a correct understanding of the science of Chinese medicine, practical, but also in medicine and western medicine should be treated equally in the political status and social status. 

    Chinese medicine is the emergence of Chinese civilization with the birth of at least five thousand years of recorded history; Western medicine was introduced into China from the Kangxi period, but only 350 years of history.

    But Western medicine in China today in what position?

    The number of West China Hospital? China has a number of Western medicine? West China Hospital, the number of regions occupied? Medical personnel training in China with the Chinese Medicine Hospital of the West compared to what percentage of total? China's health care investment, compared to Western medicine and Chinese medicine take much share? Some of the problem to clear to the world, Western medicine in China has an absolute, strong, dominated by the ruling.

    Hence the dominant stand at this point of view the problem of Chinese Academy of Sciences Zuoxiu publicly stated: Chinese medicine is pseudoscience.

    How could anyone think such a treasure of Chinese civilization? How could anyone think that the essence of our national culture? We are able to turn a blind eye, deaf ear to it?

    Chinese medicine to "Heaven" as the philosophical foundation; the "Yellow Emperor" basis for the diagnosis; to "Compendium of Materia Medica" is based medicine, including the establishment of yin and yang, five elements, and Manner, luck and the possession of various theories such as the meridian , pathogenesis-based, treatment, theoretical system of governing law, is not a scientific theory?

    Chinese medicine follows the reason and law, parties, drugs for diagnosis and treatment is not science? TCM's look, smell, and asked, cutting is not science? TCM treatment methods within the rule, foreign rule, including Chinese medicine, prescription, acupuncture, massage, massage, qigong, which are not scientific? The answer should be indisputable affirmation.

    I followed the Chongqing Municipal Government delegation to the activities of the Shanghai World Expo during the public display of the Chinese medical treatment, external treatment methods, a number of central and Shanghai media was reported. The science of Chinese medicine issues, issued more than a million "Xinmin Evening News" commented that: "Some people say that Chinese medicine is not scientific, one of the bases is difficult to quantify. Western medicine dosage instructions on all states, for example, adult day several times to take a few grams. But What is the age range of adults? weak men and women have strong differences in different regions, different ethnic sub? the other hand, Chinese medical treatment, look, smell, and asked, cutting, one side, because of the same symptoms people and different doses of different drugs. individualized education science, the person is not a traditional Chinese medicine prescription is Science? "We should ponder.

    Chinese medicine does not recognize the scientific, medical neglect or disregard of proper scientific and rational position, so that should be a strong social prejudices General Secretary Hu Jintao's "scientific development" to give strong guidance to correct. Otherwise, Chinese medicine is vulnerable, tributaries, can not change the status of being dominated.

    China is building a powerful socialist country with Chinese characteristics. Protection of all physical and mental health of all peoples of China is one of the main objectives of power. To achieve this goal, we must establish the medical security system with Chinese characteristics. The health care system to establish the fundamental direction is "Integrative Medicine", combining the essence of TCM is to achieve equality.

    II. Establishment of the Steering Committee on Chinese Medicine.

    Development of Chinese medicine has a clear standpoint, that is, for China's 1.3 billion people. Because Chinese medicine, low cost, regional strong underserved in our country, with unparalleled advantages for development. Relations in the medicine of the whole nation's health, development of Chinese medicine should be the national initiative, led and dominated the event. Recommendations included the development of TCM's State Council Development Research Center research projects, development planning; explicitly included in the State Development and Reform Commission of Chinese medicine development. On this basis, established a special Committee on Chinese Medicine, implementation planning planning, coordination between various government departments to address the bottleneck in the development of Chinese medicine and a variety of difficult problems, determine the establishment of the development of key projects in the pharmaceutical industry.

    III. To strengthen and speed up the theory of Chinese medicine. 

    Admittedly, the theory of Chinese medicine research and development of modern detached, compared with Western medical research is backward. Therefore, the priority should be advocacy and promotion by the state of Chinese medicine theory. I think it can be immediately initiated five research.

    1. Should be established in the medical real clinical experimental base, completely according to the traditional theoretical guidance, the Chinese base, such as the six evils: the wind, cold, heat, wet, dry, fire the disease theory, scientific proof; dirty and dirty five elements, the phase g gasification principle, scientific simulation and reconstruction.

    2. Chinese medicine should be innovative, expanding awareness of view, the Chinese geography, Chinese experimental science, Chinese qi in the body chemistry, medicine and other types of ecological science humanities, diversified, multi-faceted research in this way; the concept of traditional Chinese medicine as a whole, do Yin and Yang, Five Elements symptoms of a single micro-evolution and research. Meridians to the collaterals from the human body as a whole, the fine network of Sun theoretical basis of innovation.

    3. Relationship between people and plants; environment, emotions and human relations; biological diversity and human relations; information between electronic and human, in the information age to explore a new human essence, gas, and the theoretical interpretation of God.

    4. In traditional Chinese medicine in preventive medicine and health science, law by age and time to explore a new theory of cross-age health, especially mental life and the growth and decline of elderly hospice, fluctuating, disappeared to make scientific proof.

    5. Strengthen the more scientific Western medicine, penetration of science and folk medicine, tele-diagnosis system in the medical electronics applications such as digital research.

    IV. Strengthen the Chinese academic exchanges.

    The path of the exchange the following recommendations:

    1. Medicine should be established in various clinical and theoretical academic platform, with the formation of various existing associations held every five years in the medical crisis in academic exchanges and medical innovation in the theory of the mechanism of exchange of the General Assembly. 

    2. In the broader social environment, with the name of academic research in medicine, expand medical counterparts in the ring game, so that "effect is the last word," a strong argument in science to human services.

    3. Different disciplines in each of the courage of Chinese medicine with Western medicine, science, natural science, electronic science, astronomy and other scientific fields has been done in all-round docking compatibility and academic exchanges.

    4. We build in medical science and the birth of the unique contribution of the pharmaceutical scientists.

    5. International academic exchanges between Chinese medicine. To see the development of India's strong herbs; understand the world trend of non-drug therapy; understanding of international development is the direction of popular holistic therapies; understanding of Japan, South Korea's use of the commercial value of Chinese medicine; understand German urban and rural ecological Heaven and the elderly living example of the demand for convalescence. Exchange of diverse political backgrounds to a more prominent inclusion of China in academic medicine, depth and breadth.

    Five. To increase and accelerate their investments in Chinese medicine.

    Ten years ago, Chongqing Health Bureau told me that a responsible person, a Western hospital in Chongqing is equivalent to the national investment in total investment in Chongqing, all the Chinese medicine hospital twice. The proportion of such investment, I am afraid today remains the same. National Hospital of Chinese Medicine Shangqie encounter difficulties, we, the private sector is even more difficult for the Chinese medicine clinics.

    My father created Liu Shaolin Church since 1951. In nearly 60 years, we have father and son from the good practice of medicine, cure thousands of patients. We also commissioned by the Department of the CPC Central Committee, has for Zhao, Song Ping, Zhang Aiping, Chi, Sun Qimeng and other leaders, and Chairman Mao's daughter, Li Na treatment, families with Zhang Aiping the inscription: "Development of Shen Nong medicine, innovative country Medicine "and the Chi of the inscription:" three generations of Chinese medicine practitioners, famous Chinese Fu hurt. " My father and I since the early 70s of last century wrote books, write "Chinese Folk Medicine Series" about 300 million words. We created the "Acupuncture Liu barbed iron therapy" has been named the national intangible cultural heritage items. In the SARS period, I presented a million to the Hong Kong Control Irazu. During the earthquake, I was almost hit twice a week to participate in person to treat the injured and donated drugs and protective equipment. However, despite the reputation and contribution of so it can not change our living conditions.

    We Shaolin Tong clinics, doctor and dispensing the income is very low. We are not businessmen, can not follow the market, not price rises we rise. We are doctors, is the only purpose of saving lives, not to mention we are faced with the common people. Some poor people to clinics, we are free diagnosis and treatment. As a result, resulting in our clinic income of nearly 20 employees can only maintain a low level of basic pay in Chongqing, online. And to maintain this level, mainly by "odd jobs" - to develop and sell pure Chinese cosmetics, for a small profit.

    Out of Chinese medicine and traditional culture obsession, my father and I founded the National Museum of the first family of folk medicine were collected from the Neolithic period to date more than fifteen thousand pieces of medicine samples. Also organized a plaque Jialing River Museum, a collection of the descendants of five generations of more than 3,000 pieces collected over the years and even beyond the Ming and Qing era plaques. This year I will be more than three successive collection of rare books medical text books, founded in Chongqing, the "National Medical College." For the heritage and culture of traditional Chinese medicine, shows the history of heavy original.

    I can see a face we do these things what a huge funding gap. Our clinic is a good thing to do these benefits the country, no country for their support, how can long gone out of existence and run it.

    Although the clinics and museums, founder of the library building is private, but it belongs to the State and nation. So I hope for our country and the collection of this type of clinic to give funds to support cultural maintenance.

    In promoting the simultaneous development of Chinese medicine and Western medicine under the conditions of Western and Chinese medicine the state should designate the investment ratio. I think that Chinese medicine should be not less than all the pharmaceutical investment ratio twenty percent of the total investment. Just think, if the proportion of such investment in the pharmaceutical industry, will gain mass more than two hundred percent coverage. Chinese medicine is a valuable wealth of the nation state, to determine the proportion of such investment protection and development, should not be an exaggeration. I also recommend the country to carry out aid clinic million civil action to fund subsidies, and contributions to hundreds of traditional Chinese medicine clinics to be rewarded.

    VI. To give preferential policies on Chinese Medicine tilt. 

    The first is health care problem, the state established public health care system is to solve the medical treatment is difficult and expensive problems. Chinese, especially the characteristics of private clinics, a mass welcome, willing to seek treatment in the medical institutions, Why should not the health care treatment units for the ordinary people turned away? Included in the scope of health insurance, many ordinary people are willing to seek treatment, and diagnosis and treatment of a corresponding increase in income, this is a win-win thing, why can not it do it? Some people may think, assess the eligibility of private clinics, there are many practical difficulties, however, little difficulty is not so insurmountable. For private clinics, it's history, its reputation, its actual treatment effect, all have data to prove it. As long as seriously to develop a workable objective standard that can solve this problem. The problem is there is no one thought to do, willing to do.

    Second, Chinese private clinics grading problems. Because in the eyes of the people on the national assessment of one, two, three hospitals have different trust and medical treatment options. Chinese medicine is the assessment of private clinics meet the needs of the majority of patients. Suggested that the state assessment and evaluation of the level of private practice medicine. This policy did not and should now be emancipating the mind, a bold attempt to try and implement a new policy.

    Again, a drug famous approved the issue, my Five heritage practice more than a century, there are many exclusive open, patented invention certificate is proved to be a significant efficacy of traditional medicines, including tai chi plaster, Tin Wong dizziness pass, full Sound of and other award-winning products, these drugs has been welcomed by the majority of patients. Doctor is a point, the drug is a surface. Sales of the drug to more patients will benefit. However, we have to declare a national marketing of drugs very difficult quasi-famous, both economic difficulties have energy difficulties. I am a doctor, to give patients a day to see a doctor, how could one day go to a department, one a break through the barrier? This issue needs to open the door to the country from policy and green channels.

    I very much hope that we have such historical factors, there are social values, the masses need a private clinic, the state could adopt a "public-private partnership" policy, anchored to enjoy the state-run public hospitals, health insurance, investment, introduction of equipment, medical devices Commandments equal treatment, independent accounting.

    VII. Follow-up on TCM personnel training.

    Currently a large number of Chinese talents is to rely on back-country to set up Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is just one aspect of training personnel.

    Another aspect of civil society in China has a large number of ancestral physicians, they have the well-known is very skilled, has a wealth of experience in a career in medicine, these doctors are actually training with only the key points follow doctors. Train an apprentice chef, Shoubashoujiao, the traditional Chinese culture proven method of education. Such as Peking Opera, Mei, Cheng, Xun, yet all four were sent to teach one on one training outstanding students, and the impact so far. TCM has a unique way of practicing medicine, for each patient's diagnosis and prescription, are different, not suitable for large lectures, in practice, the hands-on train an apprentice teaching experience, will have a multiplier effect. Chinese and apprentices, is to develop talent more important follow-up approach.

    I received a lot of disciples, including foreign disciples. Many of them practice in the practice of social recognition. So I can not understand is that these disciples of social recognition, the patient admitted, but the country does not recognize. The state because they can not get a diploma because they can not get license to practice medicine. We look forward to the introduction of the State to "practice is the sole criterion for testing truth," thought the assessment under the guidance of the standards and ways to participate successor assessment, and obtain the corresponding academic and practice qualifications. For example, teachers with more than ten years, to relax, MD, barriers to entry.

    For the Chinese people were concerned, there is also a problem of job classification. These people were able to board the Chinese University of platform, can Daiyanjiusheng, PhD? A singer can become a visiting professor at the University, a writer can become Dean of     Arts institutions of higher education, generation, why can not doctors be given equal attention as well as they do? This is the need to train doctors from the perspective of the State, one of the important issues to consider.

    VIII. Chinese medicine to strengthen the results of scientific and public opinion and propaganda.

    China now has more than eight thousand of the media, so many of the media publicity on the medicine, total less than one percentage point. At this point, the decision is much publicized Western medicine. Hundreds of millions of Chinese people believe that Chinese medicine, public positions should stay in place for Chinese medicine. The key is not reported in Chinese medicine have technical difficulty, but there hear their voices, understand their needs, the correct understanding of the role of Chinese medicine understand the problem. For example, a lot of media attention to livelihood issues, opened up a healthy version, particularly in terms of prevention and health published a lot of Western ideas. In fact, preventive medicine and health science school is a long history and profound. I hope that from the perspective of people's livelihood, attach importance to traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine attention to publicity.
