Abstract:
In recent years, the cooperation between China and the Republic of Lebanon (hereinafter referred to as "Lebanon" ) in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) service trade has become increasingly urgent. At present, TCM in Lebanon is facing challenges such as the westernized medical environment, the imperfect system of TCM doctors’ recognition, the strict drug access conditions, the imperfect industrial chain of Chinese medical products, and the significant impact of cultural and regional differences on the market demand for Chinese medicine. It is suggested that health care products should be taken as the breakthrough point to develop service trade, enterprises should be attracted to settle in Lebanon from the national level to produce Chinese medicine preparations on the spot, and pay attention to high-level contact, establish TCM hospitals, and deepen cultural exchanges, so as to promote the development of Chinese medicine in the Lebanon.
