〜 Recent topics on ports
and harbors at international organizations/conferences
〜 |
|
 |
The world economy
and trade are being multipolarized by the progress of regionalism
such as the establishment and development of EU, NAFTA,
MERCOSUR, and TPP instead of concentrating in the USA.
And China is surely overtaking Japan as Second-Largest
Economy and the relative status of Japan's economy is being
lowered by rapidly growing countries such as China and Brazil.
Under these circumstances, therefore, our consideration
on how to enhance international competitiveness of Japanese
ports or on how to proceed their cooperation with overseas
ports should be important to help foster our country itself.
The feature of this month is taking up some international
conferences/organizations related to ports and harbors,
showing some topics discussed there, in order to find out
the right direction of ports in our country. |
