Traditional Medicine - Treating the Act

The Health Ministry has announced that they plan to enforce the Traditional and Complementary Medicine Act, also known as TCM, within the next few months. This is to professionalize traditional and complementary medicine which is widely practiced in the country. The Ministry aims to ensure that these services are safe and efficacious for the public. We ask why its taken so much time since the Act was passed by Parliament in 2013 to get it enforced.

This is a report by Melanie Abraham.
