It was a decade ago that a coincidence of fate happened to me. I still have a crystal clear memory of what took place. This memory always brings me a great joy, an intense bliss. One of my female friends used to tell me a story about a mysterious man with a happy smile on her face, something akin to elation. I had never expected that one year after hearing her story of that mysterious man, fate would handle me a similar experience.

U – Medical: Elevating the status of local herbal medicines in I-san at UBU
(I-san is a local dialect which refers to the Northeastern region of Thailand.)
In November 2008, I presented a special interview with Dr. Krisana Kraisintu, the Gypsy Medicine Maker who happily returned a favour to the University of Ubon Rajathanee at http://www.oknation.net/blog/thaithai/2008/11/25/entry-2 Not long after that, I received an email from Dr. Krisana that her projects at UBU have taken off and the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at UBU has started the production of Thai herbal medicines.
I was once again marveled by the accomplishment and the speed of this remarkable lady. I was surprised..well, you could say …shocked.. and speechless of what to say next. It couldn’t be easy to produce herbal medicines in a few months. Did our ANGEL have a magic wand??? I couldn’t wait to find the answers to my curiosity so I wrote an email to request a meeting with Dr. Krisana while simultaneously prayed that she would agree to meet me sooner than later. I was extremely curious and excited to learn how her projects turned out and what exactly she has achieved. Any herbal medicines that would benefit my health and those of my compatriots?

I will take out the fish bones for you…..always….Friendship between Sunflower and Sweet pea.
22 August 2007 was the day that I encountered one of the saddest, though, one of the most memorable stories in my life. It was the loveliness of two small children whose friendship for each other and their determination to continue to live in this cruel world that left a lasting imprint on my heart.
At Camillian Social Centre Rayong, an orphanage in Rayong Province in Eastern Thailand, the children were very excited and happy that Auntie Dr. Krisana Krasintu, who invented the generic antiretroviral drugs against HIV/AIDS , came to visit them. She arrived with boxes of colourful and tasty Donuts. She visits Father Giovani, the Director of the Centre and the children on a regular basis. The children are infected with HIV/AIDS, all of whom were abandoned by their parents through death or social stigma. Today, Dr. Krisana was accompanied by Mr. Asoke Mahadhevan, the Editor-in-chief of Reader Digest Magazine and me, Kibangkok. We brought presents and toys for the children.

A Special Interview: The Gypsy Medicine Maker happily returns a favour to University of Ubon Rajathanee. I wrote an email to Dr. Krisana Kraisintu, the Gypsy medicine maker in September 2008, at a time when she was working on her humanitarian project in one of the African countries to enquire about her and her news. As one of her loyal fans, I was worried to hear that she was ill. When I received her reply, she did not mention anything about her health or her welfare. Her email informed me that as soon as she returned to Thailand, she would find the first opportunity to travel to the University of Ubon Rajathanee (UBU). (Ubon Rajathanee is the biggest province in the Northeastern region of Thailand.) I read her email a few times trying to detect any linkages between Dr. Krisana and UBU, but none presented itself to me, which made me even more curious. So I requested a meeting with Dr. Krisana for a special interview to find out more information that I could relay to her other fans and readers. The date of the interview was set on 8 November 2008. Dr. Krisana kindly allowed me to meet her for this special interview in a coffee shop. I would like to share with you some parts of the conversation that I had with her. |

From China to Africa: A Thai lady whom the Chinese Government designates as its humanitarian pharmacist.
A few weeks ago, I toured the bookshops to update myself on the latest best-selling and most read books. Suddenly, my eyes caught on the smiling picture of Dr. Krisana Kraisintu, the Gypsy Medicine Maker, sitting on one of the bookshelves. I immediately rushed to greet her by purchasing her second pocket book and became its proud owner. I wanted to show my support for the great work that Dr. Krisana tirelessly continues to do to make a difference in people’s life. After I finished reading the book, I wrote an email to the email address that Dr. Krisana left for the readers to send her feedbacks.
Of course, I would not miss an opportunity to write to her, telling her about my opinions on her latest book and requesting a meeting with her. My goal is to hunt her signature to keep as a souvenir. If anyone does not know how to contact Dr. Krisana, let me tell you that it is best to write an email to her because she spends time traveling like a gypsy all over the African continent to teach Africans to manufacture life-saving medicines. Her lifestyle makes it a challenge for all of us to track and find her….. |

哈工大报讯(学生记者 刘杨)她获得了2004年诺贝尔和平奖提名，她获得了国际科学成就奖、国际博览会金奖，她获得艾滋病日成就奖……被众多光环笼罩 下的她出现在笔者面前时，竟是那样的朴素，那样的和蔼可亲，慈祥甜美的笑容立刻融化了笔者所有的焦躁与不安。她就是2008年被国际读者文摘选为亚洲杰出 人物，被众多网站称为“亚洲英雄”的国际著名泰国药学家、草药植物家克蕾辛杜（Krisana Kraisintu）博士。
克蕾辛杜博士在泰国清迈大学药学专业获得学士学位，在英国Bath大学药物化学专业获得博士学位。1999年以来，她被我校聘为客座教授。28年来她一直从事药物质量监督、药物生产、新药特别是以天然药用植物为原料的新药开发，目前已经获得了上百项专利。
克蕾辛杜博士曾担任泰国卫生部政府药物组织研发中心主任，现任非洲疟疾病、艾滋病防治药物生产技术特别顾问。克蕾辛杜博士的足迹已经踏遍了非洲大陆的每一 个角落，她在国际上最令人瞩目的成就在于艾滋病防治药物的研发、生产技术的研制在非洲国家的成功应用，并将她所研制的虐疾病防治药物生产技术专利无私的传 授给非洲国家和人民。正如克蕾辛杜博士与非洲有着亲密的联系一样，克蕾辛杜博士与哈工大也有着不解之缘，自1999年被聘为我校生命科学与工程系客座教授 至今，我校对克蕾辛杜博士的工作给予了大量的帮助与支持。在她的援非计划与方案方面，我校在技术上与她在利用生物技术研发艾滋病防治药物新药领域亲密合 作，极大地推动了克蕾辛杜博士工作的开展，在原料进口方面，我校极力帮助，使得她的药物生产原料可以完全来自于中国，大大降低药物生产的成本。克蕾辛杜博 士坦言感触很深的是，在非洲只要一提她是中国的大学的教授，非洲人民就会格外友好格外合作，身为哈工大的教授确实给她的工作带来了很大的便利。在这种前提 下，她所研制成功的艾滋病防治药物生产技术将药物成本降低了25至27倍，改变了艾滋病防治药物天价的状况，从而使艾滋病患者的就医范围有了迅速的扩大， 特别是在非洲这样艾滋病率很高、老百姓相对贫困的区域，她的技术拯救了成千上万的贫穷患者，受到了国际社会的广泛关注和赞誉，她的名字在非洲人民心中广泛 传颂。
