Do you know what it is?
The above herb medicals that we introduced to you can be find in southern part of Cheung Chau.Walking along Sai Wan in southern part, there are many useful herb medicines you can find. Those herb medicines can heal many common diseases, such as sprain, cold, fever etc. And it is easy to find. Because of herb medicine, they can save medical expenses or even sell it to the tourists. It become one of the earning income option. But in northern part, it probably can’t be found. It is because we haven’t seen any northern part’s herb medical in books, internet etc.
We believed it is one of the reasons they chose living in southern part rather than northern part.

Do you have any evidence to proof that the local people can save medical expenses by using local herbal medicine? Do many local poeple sell them to the tourists? Have you seen some of them and interviewed them on the site? Any 2nd hand information to support this argument?
