Zhongshan City—The Tibetan Traditional Medicine Center in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province in China disclosed plans to set up a satellite facility in Manila, a part of its global strategy to widen the reach of traditional Chinese therapeutic techniques.
“We are exploring how we can bring the benefits of Tibetan medicine closure to Filipinos. In fact, there is an ongoing government-to-government [G2G] negotiation between the Philippines and China,” said New Goldmines Tours and Travel president Ruben Co.
If talks go as anticipated, a new and the 7th Tibetan Traditional Medicine Center is expected to rise in Manila by July 2025, Co said.
As part of the Tibetan culture, the center will be adorned with traditional Tibetan decorations straight from Tibet to showcase its ethnicity and uniqueness.
While there is no estimate yet on the cost of the facility, the traditional Tibetan works of art that will be used to decorate the building will reach about CY50 million.
Among the services the center intends to provide is an initial analysis of one’s health conditions, particularly underlying illnesses not evident to the naked eye.
The center will also house a museum of traditional Chinese medicines, detailing their origin and their benefits to the human body.
“Many Filipinos have sought the wisdom of Tibetan traditional medicine, particularly for those with serious health conditions such as cancer and internal organ failure,” said Co.
New Goldmines Tours provides a medical tour of the facility as part of a new tour package showcasing the cities in Southern China.
The traditional medicine segment targets mature markets who are into health longevity and therapy.
