Contributions of Chinese doctors in Pakistan
By Uzma Zafar

While the Chinese engineers and businessmen have been contributing a lot in enhancing Pakistan's economy, trade and infrastructure development, the traditional Chinese doctors have also been making amazing contributions in the health sector of Pakistan. Be it acupuncture or Chinese herbal or traditional Chinese mode of medical treatment, the Chinese doctors are serving Pakistanis in all directions and that too with acute perfection and dedication.
One such name is the name of doctor Zhu Wen Xiang. Doctor Zhu, hailing from China's Zhengzhou province, arrived in Lahore some ten years back. After working with different local hospitals, he established his own clinic with the name of Recovery health Center (SMC Pvt) limited. Specializing in Chinese Traditional Medicines, Dr. Zhu is a specialist in world famous Chinese Acupuncture.
Dr. Zhu Wen Xiang says that the traditional Chinese medical system is very effective and far cheaper than the modern days' medical treatments. He says that the ancient, centuries old Chinese medicines are harmless otherwise to the human body but are very effective in curing and controlling different diseases even of those of very serious nature. He said that Chinese acupuncture was the best and the ultimate treatment for all the diseases in a human body and particularly highly effective in relieving of all kinds of pains.
Dr,Zhu, to a question said that he enjoys living in Pakistan and serving the Pakistanis in health related matters. To another question, Zhu said that he was having home like feelings while living in Pakistan as he never felt like being a foreigner here because in the backdrop of traditional, deep rooted friendship between Pakistan and China, he always got a lot of love and respect from Pakistanis. To a question about safety of Chinese nationals living in Pakistan, Dr, Zhu said that Chinese were enjoying a wonderful atmosphere while living in Pakistan. They were enjoying a lot of love and hospitality. However there were a few isolated incidents of terrorism in which a couple of Chinese engineers were killed in Pakistan but those were isolated incidents and were not bdone by Pakistanis as terrorists have no nationality and no religion. He said there was no hatred against Chinese people in Pakistan and in fact there was a lot of respect and love for the Chinese in the hearts of Pakistanis. He said that 56 years old exemplary friendship between Pakistanis and Chinese was matter of immense pride for both sides and that's why Chinese living in Pakistan enjoy an amazingly safe and secure atmosphere.
