  To dear phytomedica subscribers

  I would like to place before you a proposal - to start an association /
society for the scientists involved in the medicinal plant work in India/
South Asia. . Many scientist do much non-organised research work in very
many institutions , but there is no dedicated setup to bring them together
once in a year or so for effective interation, cooperation and for serving
the national intersts in a more organised way.  My idea is to form a
scientific society for for this purpose, register under the sccieties act
and then function as an umbrella to gather the various resarch scientists
for mutual interation. Eventully a professional journal can also be started
for rapid publication of research results. It can be something like THE
SOUTH ASIAN SOCIETY/ASSOCIATION FOR MEDICINAL PLANT SCIENTISTS.

  I request all medicinal plant workers in India and other  South Asin
countries to respond to this proposal . Based on the rsponse a meeting pf
the target group can be convened possibly in Bangalore to discuss further
and to formally form the society.
  Dear medicinal plant reserchers- please rspond to this proposal.
