Is TCM the quintessence of our country?

Feng Shiliang, a member of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a family of Chinese medicine practitioners, submitted a proposal to the "two sessions" to let traditional medicine withdraw from the national medical system. Feng Shiliang believes that "paying equal attention to Chinese and Western medicine" is a major mistake in the construction of China's medical system, which has seriously dragged down the development of China's medicine, distorted the development direction of China's medicine, messed up the construction of China's medical team, ruined China's international reputation in the medical and health field, and accumulated quite serious social problems for China.

Feng Shiliang also believes that according to the definition of "essential drugs" by the World Health Organization, China's National Catalogue of Essential Drugs should be revised, all proprietary Chinese medicines should be deleted, and all universities of traditional Chinese medicine should be closed.
