　　记者：早在19世纪淘金热时期，中医就随着大批华人淘金者的涌入而进入了澳大利亚。但在很长的时间里，中医只在华人圈中流行。近些年，世界各国对中医的了解不断加深，尤其是中国对于中医的科学研究不断深入，使得世界各国越来越多的人理解、接受中医。据统计，目前在澳大利亚，有大约5000家中医及针灸诊所。中医在澳大利亚的普及和流行，是澳大利亚政府决定对中医和中药师进行全国注册管理的大背景。

　　2009年5月，澳大利亚决定把中医、中药师纳入全国注册管理。按照相关立法，从今年7月1号开始，只有进行了正式注册的中医、中药师，才能够在澳大利亚合法行医。在此之前，澳大利亚各州已经对中医进行了注册管理，现在则是全国统一注册、管理。

May 2009，Australia decided to traditional Chinese medicine、ZhongYaoShi into the national registration management。According to the relevant legislation，From this year begins July 1，Only official registration of traditional Chinese medicine、ZhongYaoShi，In Australia to legitimate to practice medicine。Before this，Australia states had registered to the traditional Chinese medicine management，Is now a unified national registered、management。

　　主持人：澳大利亚政府对中医、中药师进行全国注册管理，该如何看待这一举措的意义呢？

The host：The Australian government to traditional Chinese medicine、ZhongYaoShi for the national registration management，What about the meaning of the move？

　　记者：毫无疑问， 澳大利亚政府的这一举措，首先是承认了中医药作为一门医学学科在澳大利亚的合法地位；与此同时，也把中医药纳入了法制化管理的轨道。这一举措的实施与成效，将对其他西方国家对中医药进行管理起到借鉴和示范作用。

reporter：There is no doubt that， The Australian government of the measure，First is to admit that the Chinese medicine as a medical science in Australia's legal status；At the same time，The Chinese medicine into a legalized administration of the track。The measure of the implementation and results，Will other western countries for management in Chinese medicine has reference and exemplary role。

　　在澳大利亚，中医一直是作为“补充医学”的一部分而存在的。澳大利亚的“补充医学”是一个广泛的概念，包括了中医、印度传统医学、自然疗法、香薰疗法等多种除西医以外的医药和医疗手段。近年来，随着中医和中药在澳大利亚的推广，澳大利亚社会对中医药的接受程度越来越高。 中药也被列为澳大利亚“补充药品”中的重要门类。正是因为中医的影响日益扩大，澳大利亚联邦政府才正式成立了国家中医局，并公布全国中医注册标准，对中医实行全国统一注册管理。

In Australia，Traditional Chinese medicine has been as“Supplementary medical”Part of the existing。Australia's“Supplementary medical”Is a widely concept，Including Chinese medicine、India traditional medicine、Natural therapy、Aromatherapy therapy of western medicine and outside except medical means。In recent years，Along with the traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine in Australia's promotion，The Australian community acceptance in Chinese medicine is getting higher and higher。 Traditional Chinese medicine also is listed as Australia“Added drug”Important aspect of the。It is because of the growing influence of traditional Chinese medicine，The federal government in Australia to formally founded the state bureau of traditional Chinese medicine，And the national Chinese medicine published registered standards，To implement the national unified registration management of traditional Chinese medicine。

　　主持人：那么这一举措对中医未来在澳大利亚的发展将产生什么影响呢？

The host：So the move to the future development of traditional Chinese medicine in Australia will be what influence？

　　记者：在我看来，将中医纳入立法管理本身，就是对中医地位的确认。但与此同时，澳大利亚政府如何管理中医药，才是中医药在澳大利亚前途的决定性因素。

reporter：In my opinion，Will Chinese medicine into legislation management itself，Traditional Chinese medicine is the status of the confirmation。But at the same time，The Australian government how to manage Chinese medicine，Traditional Chinese medicine is the decisive factor in Australia's future。

　　目前，有不少在澳大利亚执业多年的中医师对政府的管理条例提出疑义，比如认为注册条件比较苛刻，审批过程冗长复杂等等。主要的抱怨则集中在对中医药师的英语水平要求上。根据相关注册标准，中医师的雅思考试每科都必须达到6分，才能进行注册；如果语言成绩不过关，则需要在执业时聘请专业翻译。一道语言关，可能把大量从业者挤出中医行业。这是因为在澳大利亚，专业翻译的收费相当昂贵，多数中医师不可能常年负担这笔不菲的支出。

At present，Many in Australia for many years doctors to practice of government regulations raise nagging，Such as that registered conditions is hard，The examination and approval process long complex and so on。The main complaint is concentrated on the English level of Chinese medicine pharmacists requirements。According to relevant registration standards，TCM doctor ielts test every division must reach six points，To register；If language result not to pass，The need to hire a professional translation when in practice。A language shut，The number of practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine may be out of the industry。This is because in Australia，Professional translation fee very expensive，Most doctors can't afford the expensive perennial spending。

　　当然，从长远看，每一项政策在推行的过程中都会有一个调整和适应的过程。可以肯定的是，未来中医在澳大利亚将走上规范化发展的道路；人们期待澳大利亚政府制定合理和可操作的政策，从而让中医更好地服务于澳大利亚社会。 (记者 邓黎)

Of course，In the long run，Each and every one of the policy implementation in the process will be a adjustment and adapt to the process。Certainly，Traditional Chinese medicine in Australia will be the future in a standardized way of development；People expect the Australian government formulate rational and operational policy，Traditional Chinese medicine to make better service to the Australian society。 (Reporter DengLi)
