-  * //"Published together as a set in 1925, the two pamphlets were titled The Tai Foong Chee Treatment of Leprosy and The Results of the Tai Foong Chee Treatment. Interestingly, the author, Dr Ernest Aston Otho Travers, was a medical officer with the British colonial service and a physician trained in the Western tradition. Travers demonstrated the effectiveness of traditional medicine from other cultures through scientific assessment and the encouraging results attracted attention from medical communities beyond Malaya. ... In April 1922, the Kuala Lumpur Leper Asylum (also known as Setapak camp), which housed around 300 patients, came under his charge until his retirement in 1925, the same year in which the two pamphlets were published. The first pamphlet contained several tables of statistics setting out the trial results of the Tai Foong Chee treatment administered to the patients in Setapak camp and the second pamphlet contained photos showing the outcome of a year’s treatment. ... While segregation was critical from a public health perspective, Travers was of the view that the asylum could be a place of hope for a cure. In 1922, a few remedies were tested: one of which was the injection of chaulmoogra oil from Hydnocarpus wightiana, or Chaulmoogra seeds, but the results were inconsistent. It came to Travers’ attention that nine Chinese leprosy patients had presented no visible signs of the disease. Five of these were subsequently assessed and cleared of the leprosy bacilli by the Institute for Medical Research. Travers discovered that they had been self-medicating with a Chinese formula consisting of a blend of three ingredients: Tai Foong Chee (Hydnocarpus anthelmintica or Chaulmoogra nuts), Pak Chut Lai (Tribulus terrestris Linn or Puncture Vine seeds) and Foh Mah Yan (Cannabis indica or Hemp seeds). The Chinese had used this remedy as a cure for leprosy for many years. He was impressed by the remarkable results and proceeded to place more patients on the treatment. This inexpensive treatment of just three pence per patient per month was so simple that the patients could handle the process from preparation to administration on their own. Travers noted that “the Chinese lepers have become so extraordinarily quick and efficient at this work that over three hundred and fifty doses are given and registered in under half an hour”.⁴ It was effective, had relatively fewer undesirable side effects and so “very popular with the lepers, women and children taking it as regularly as the men, and it is not often that any of them miss a dose”."// \\ {{:gambar:1b0wwjkwkaqs60kf96ejbka.jpg?400|}} \\ {{:gambar:136li6abbueclfnwcdfmuqg.jpg?400|}} \\ (Sumber: National Library Singapore, Sep 29, 2021: {{ :laman:we_like_it_rare_tai_foong_chee_a_traditional_chinese_remedy_for_leprosy_in_western_medical_practice_by_national_library_singapore_our_stories_national_library_singapore_blog_medium.pdf ||}}[[https://medium.com/the-national-library-blog/we-like-it-rare-tai-foong-chee-a-traditional-chinese-remedy-for-leprosy-in-western-medical-4ee00b7d6ac3|"[We Like It Rare] Tai Foong Chee — A Traditional Chinese Remedy for Leprosy in Western Medical Practice"]]).

+//"When Dr Earnest Aston Otho Travers (1865-1934) was serving as a medical officer in the Setapak Leprosy Camp, he saw the poor facilities and the overcrowded, subhuman living conditions in the camp and began to mull about ways to improve the situation. In 1923, at the 5th Biennial Congress of Tropical Medicine held in Singapore, he introduced the idea of a “self-supporting community.” His bold and forward-thinking vision was materialised by Dr Gordon Ryrie, the first Medical Superintendent of the Sungai Buloh Settlement. The Valley of Hope, officially opened on 15 August 1930, was then the largest and best-equipped leprosarium in the British Commonwealth. The 570-acre colony, much like a little country, is a self-contained community and has every facility one can imagine – hospital wards, housing, a marketplace, a school, a community hall, a recreational field, a prison, a mosque, a Hindu temple, Chinese temples, churches, and a variety of clubs and associations. The settlement even introduced its own printed currency for internal circulation."//
