The Government has launched some 10 funding schemes through the CMDF, covering a wide funding scope and benefitting different stakeholders in the CM sector. The CMDF has become an important platform for collaboration between the Government and CM academia and sector in promoting the development of CM. It is also a vital policy measure to facilitate continuous industry development, industry standards enhancement and public education on CM. It is hoped that the CMDF can play a greater role in supporting the development of Chinese Medicine in <span class=\"xn-location\">Hong Kong<\/span>.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;CMDF is supervised by the Chinese Medicine Unit of the Health Bureau and implemented by HKPC. By funding projects related to talent nurturing, enhancement of CM clinic facilities, improvement of proprietary Chinese medicines (pCm) production techniques, research and promotion on CM etc., the CMDF aims to support stakeholders in the CM industry at different levels. As of the end of <span class=\"xn-chron\">February 2024<\/span>, the CMDF has approved over 7,700 applications, benefitting over 2.15 million individuals\/organisations. To facilitate the CM sector and general public in accessing CM-related information, the CMDF has launched a new all-in-one website that integrates the existing webpages and CM resources platform, as to provide exhaustive information on Chinese medicine.<\/p>\n<p><b>Professor <span class=\"xn-person\">Douglas SO<\/span>, Chairman of the Advisory Committee of the CMDF<\/b>&nbsp;stated, &quot;As the Chairman of the Advisory Committee, I would like to express special gratitude to the Government for the firm support on the development of CM.&nbsp; With the allocation of total of <span class=\"xn-money\">HK$ 1 billion<\/span>, CMDF has launched over 10 funding schemes to support the diversified needs of stakeholders in the CM sector and work together with the industry to promote the development of CM in <span class=\"xn-location\">Hong Kong<\/span>.

In promoting the development of CM, we actively cooperate with national policy, leverage the unique advantages of <span class=\"xn-location\">Hong Kong<\/span>, and empower the industry with innovation and technology (I&amp;T). We strengthen the collaboration among the Government, industry, academic, and research sectors to accelerate the development of new productive forces. We promote the development of new productive forces and new industrialisation through I&amp;T, with one major focus being the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries. HKPC utilises I&amp;T to drive the transformation of the traditional Chinese medicine industry, turning traditional products into intelligent ones. While developing new productive forces, we strongly encourage the CM industry to move towards high-end, green, and intelligent production, promoting and preserving the profound cultural heritage of CM that has spanned thousands of years.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The CMDF is delighted to see the Government&#8217;s measures in supporting the development of CM industry in the Budget, such as the accelerated development of CM hospital and the establishment of the Government Chinese Medicines Testing Institute.
