| To be more in tune with the structure of supply,
industry, and circulation systems (global logistics system) of domestic
and international corporations for the international distribution of goods,
it is imperative that the lead time and cost for domestic transportation
be reduced and a regular schedule set. A new proposal is being considered
for a system where the cost of transportation from the point of unloading
to a distribution center and the likelihood of congestion for the distribution
of goods is kept to a minimum. Appropriate considerations for local and
national view points must also be made when looking at a proposal to streamline
the handling of cargo. Also we must look at the role of IT, making improvements
to administration and management, introducing a 24-hour operation capability,
improving the transportation infrastructure, and making an international
benchmark transport infrastructure. A strategic approach with an international
cooperation must also be employed in the plan to improve the nation's
international distribution system. |
