| Abstract | In the past 10-15 years, policy makers in Hong Kong have started to turn their
attention to Chinese medicine. This article reviews their progress to date, and
examines the different regional policy models they might learn from in framing
health care policies to cover both Chinese and modern scientific medicine. It argues
that the best way forward for Hong Kong is to position itself on a spectrum of nondiscriminatory
state practice that offers equal respect to both traditional and modern
medicines. In East Asia, China stands towards one end of this spectrum, and South
Korea and Taiwan towards the other. The article holds that Hong Kong should
place itself somewhere between the two. |
