摘　　要：With Chinese medicine (CM) deeply rooted in Hong Kong's Chinese culture, empirical practice of CM has been the norm since the early days of Hong Kong, China. Western medicine (WM) had its humble beginnings in Hong Kong in the form of established services for colonial government staff;WM was subsequently extended to the Chinese population through missionary efforts. The scourge of the plague pestilenee in 1894 gave WM an advantage whence enforeed laws and regulations and the swing to scientific philosophy set a trend that snowballed WM dominance.
