Follow on Google News | 'Report predicts Chinese pharma market will reach $116.8BN in 2015' says visiongain reportA new report by visiongain, a London-based business information company, predicts sustained double-digit growth in the Chinese pharmaceutical market from 2011.

The main question is whose business activities will pay off best this decade."
