JNU Vice President Zhang Ronghua, on behalf of JNU, welcomed the participating leaders, guests, teachers and students. He said the school, in a university for overseas Chinese with a complete system of talent cultivation, had contributed to the cultivation of TCM talents in China, especially in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The training course promoted the development of TCM discipline.
