Part A The key construct in my area of research is port efficiency. Port efficiency is not something that can be fully observed directly. Ports play an important role in world trade and economy. The importance of ensuring efficiency in ports is strongly related to the ability of international maritime transport cost reduction. The definition of this construct quite broad and vary in perspective of researcher. Basically, port fficiency is the ability of port to operate/manage with a minimum amount
at the world which as an important factor of economic development of every maritime country. The maritime sector contributes significantly to the economic development. Underling this is the fact that 95% of the country international trade is carried in whole or in part by maritime transport. An efficiency of the transport that will improve the liberalization of the economy, the prospects for further growth of the industry remain strong. Seaport is plays a major role within the integrated of transport
incorporated into approaches for capacity management. Ports should provide enough (reserve) capacity to maritime traffic, both regarding goods-handling services and hinterland transport
The cost of fuel is at the forefront of all business manager and business owners minds. The fuel cost is direct related to the fuel efficiency of the mode of transport used. The biggest influencing factors are the transport aerodynamics, the type of engine used and the speed of the engine. Firstly aerodynamics, the drag created by the wind requires more fuel to propel the truck or vessel forward. In the figure below one can see what can be done to enhance the aerodynamics of a truck. Adding a roof

2. INTRODUCING LOGISTICS and TRANSPORTATION In this part of the report, I will explain that logistics and transportation in many aspects like logistics means, the role of the transportation in logistics chain. 2.1. What does logistics means? According the online dictionaries, logistics means that manage the goods flow between origin point and consumption point for meeting some customers needs and corporations needs. The resources of logistics include two different types that are physical and
At the same time, global consumers are also highly interested in the extent to which companies are socially responsible, mainly as far as business honesty, safety, and environmental protection are concerned. Technological conditions The shipping industry is characterized by rapid advancements in technologies. Such technologies mainly refer to new sailing and safety technologies and equipment, which give shipping companies the ability to operate their ships more safely and efficiently. At the same

the essay will investigate causes of outstanding industrialization in Thailand. The fourth section is an analysis on the relationship between state policies and industrialization in Thailand. The fifth section is about Thai industries’ modern workforce and rural industries. The sixth section attempts to locate Thai industrialization in international economic contexts. The essay will make a conclusion in the seventh
People Republic of China. Since the foundation of republic in 1949, China’s trade institution developed into partially modern system. The drive to modernize the economy began in 1978 with sharp acceleration in commodity flows and greatly improved efficiency in economic transaction. In the coming years economic reforms were adopted by the government to develop a socialist market economy. This type of economy combined with central planning with market mechanisms. The changes resulted in decentralization
