Zhao Ronghua and his younger brother, whose ancestors migrated from Guangzhou Province, have respectively operated two clinics of Chinese medicine in Southern area and Northern area of Djakarta, capital of Indonesia. Their clinics were overcrowded with patients every day, with even Indonesian officials. “Traditional Chinese medicine began popularizing in Indonesia around the 1970’s. Before that, Chinese medicine was only passed down from ancestors.” said Zhao Ronghua. Zhao added that Chinese medicine is becoming increasingly popular in Indonesia. However, the development of Chinese medicine in Indonesia was restricted since the Indonesia government adopted the policy of Western medicine managing Chinese medicine.
