State urged to support local herb industry

State support would build confidence among herbal medicine manufacturers, including small and medium-sized enterprises, to help determine business plans and increase exports, said Sittichai Daengprasert, chairman of the Herbal Industry Club of the Federation of Thai Industries.

"This move would be a shortcut for Thailand to become an herbal hub in Southeast Asia," he said, adding this scheme would require traditional medicine to be more widely used in the country.
