    • Abstract:
      The article presents information on the Malaysian traditions of ramuan. The ramuan traditional wellness system evolved from the integration of Malay social structures with foreign cultures, civilizations, and religious beliefs. Malaysia's biodiversity has ensured the growth and development of the country's medicinal plant knowledge and industry with the successful cultivation and marketing of herbs like Tongkat Ali and Kacip Fatimah.
