In recent years, the ASEAN market has witnessed the rapid expansion of Thai
Kratom, spurred by groundbreaking health innovations. Spearheaded by Dr.
Kratom Bio, this initiative has underscored the immense potential of the Thai
herbal industry within the region.
Dr. Kratom Bio unveiled these pioneering innovations in Malaysia, effectively
showcasing the transformative capabilities of Kratom. The grand stage for this
revelation was the “4th International Integrative Medicine Conference &
Inaugural Asian Kratom Congress,” held at the prestigious Majestic Hotel
Kuala Lumpur on August 12th and 13th, 2023. This remarkable event marked
the harmonious collaboration between Dr. Kratom Bio, the Malaysian
government, eminent scientists, leading universities, and the Association of
Integrative Medicine Malaysia (AIMM).
The genesis of Dr. Kratom Bio can be traced back to its inception under the
umbrella of Dr. CBD, a company founded by experts proficient in cannabis
and Kratom extraction and production. In collaboration with Mr. Duncan
MacRae, the visionary behind Kratomade.com and a pioneering Mitragynine
extraction expert, Kratomade products were introduced. This visionary
endeavour aimed at crafting unparalleled goods designed to elevate
consumer well-being by merging medical-grade Kratom extracts with
traditional Thai healing wisdom. The ultimate goal is to share this
amalgamation of knowledge and resources on a global scale.
The distinguished presence of Malaysia’s Deputy Prime Minister, YAB Dato’
Sri Haji Fadillah bin Haji Yusef, graced the international scientific conference
as its Chairman. During the inaugural ceremony, he eloquently stated:
“I am delighted to witness the remarkable strides taken in promoting
Integrative Medicine as a holistic approach to comprehensive health and
wellness. The Inaugural Asian Kratom Congress, a vital component of the 4th
International Integrative Medicine Conference, provides Malaysia a golden
opportunity to showcase its leadership in the realm of Medical Kratom.”
The Malaysian government, acutely aware of the medicinal potential
harboured by Kratom plants, is actively exploring controlled cultivation and
production avenues. With a staggering estimated global user base of 230
million, the Kratom industry’s potential to achieve a valuation of USD 16
billion by 2025 is substantial. This juncture presents Malaysian farmers with a
transformative prospect for their livelihoods.
The conference serves as a forum to strategize the Kratom Industry’s
positioning, ensuring Malaysia capitalises on the benefits of this lucrative cash
crop. By convening international experts, the Ministry of Plantation and
Commodities can glean insights to propel Malaysia into a pioneering role
within the industry. The principles of Integrative Medicine beautifully align
with the ‘Malaysia Madani’ concept, rooted in sustainability, prosperity,
innovation, respect, trust, and compassion. The Deputy Prime Minister
expressed optimism that the conference would foster mature discussions and
pave the way for effective actions that contribute to the nation’s prosperity.
The Association of Integrative Medicine Malaysia (AIMM), a constant
trailblazer in the latest advancements, was lauded for hosting such intellectual
discourse, which fortifies an evidence-based foundation for growth.
In conclusion, the successful launch of the Inaugural Asian Kratom Congress
and the 4th International Integrative Medicine Conference served as a
testament to AIMM’s and the organisers’ dedication in showcasing Malaysia’s
excellence and accomplishments on a global stage.
Dr. Kratom Bio’s ambitious mission involves expanding its Kratom business

the aforementioned scientific conference in Malaysia. Mr. Pornchai
Padmindra, CEO & Founder of Dr. CBD and Dr. Kratom Bio, passionately
