Chiang Rai launches herbal city project

  

CHIANG RAI, 16 September 2016 (NNT) - Different organisations have signed an agreement to make the northernmost province of Chiang Rai a city of herbs. 

The signing ceremony took place at Mae Fah Luang University. The signatories included Chiang Rai Governor Boonsong Techamaneesatit, Director General of the Department of Development of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine Dr. Suriya Wongkongkathep, and President of Mae Fah Luang University Assoc. Prof. Wanchai Sirichana, Chiang Rai Provincial Public Health Chief Dr. Surin Sumanapan and committee members of the Herbal City Project. 

The project is aimed at promoting the herb-processing industry in Chiang Rai in keeping with the government’s policy to upgrade Thai herbs in preparation for the Thailand 4.0 industrial era. Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha has assigned the Ministry of Public Health to oversee the government’s research and development of Thai herbs. Chiang Rai is one of the four provinces selected for the pilot herb development project. 

Various agencies jointly held a folk medicine fair to showcase indigenous curative herbs, folk medicine production and health care practices by traditional doctors from eight upper northern provinces. The event also featured a seminar inviting experts in folk medicine to share their knowledge and experiences with participants.
