KHARTOUM Authentic Ichiro Suzuki Jersey , Aug. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Sudanese government has recently decided to gradually replace imported medicines with local alternatives, in the hope of reviving the national pharmaceutical industry.

The decision first aims to encourage local pharmaceutical industry by gradually stopping the imports of medicines that are manufactured locally, said Sudan's Health Minister Bahar Idriss Abu Garada at a press conference in Khartoum Monday.
