Bank Mandiri Bank Terbaik di Indonesia - Chairman of the Association of Herbal and Traditional Medicine Charles Saerang disclose total sales of herbal medicine of Indonesia defeated Malaysia because it is still coaching the intersection siurnya coordination herbal medicine industry.

"When the total sales of herbal medicine is a new Indonesia Rp 10 trillion, Malaysia has reached Rp 15 trillion. So I suggested the establishment of communication so that all bodies are not running their own, "Charles said after opening the Second Joint Meeting of the National Employment Entrepreneur Herbs in Jakarta today.

Of the Rp 10 trillion, says Charles, a contribution from pure herbal medicine industry is only Rp 2 trillion. "What happens is the diversification of herbal medicine, ranging from food, supplements, energy drinks," he said.

Charles said that Indonesia is far behind in terms of education and research in the field of herbs rather than the countries of Malaysia and other Southeast Asia. "In Indonesia there are now only three diploma programs for herbal medicine at two universities, while in Thailand alone there are 21 universities that have master's programs in the field of herbal medicine. It's outrageous," he said.

In fact, he said, the revenue potential of herbal medicine could reach Rp 25 trillion to the wealth of spice and herb plants that exist in Indonesia. "But, if not supported by the government, such regulations are complicated, how complicated settings, how to thrive," said Charles.

Currently there are 1166 herbal and traditional medicine industry. Only 130 medium-scale industries, the remaining 1036 are small-scale industries, including household industries.

He admitted guidance from the government is still minimal, especially in terms of improving the image and marketing of medicinal herbs. Plus, he said, the lack of coordination between the Agency and Food and Drug Administration and the Ministry of Trade.

Facing the ASEAN-China free trade, Charles hoped Agency Communication Forum which overcome the problem of herbal medicine from upstream to downstream can be formed.
