Masan Port, which is a main entrance to Korea, has undergone the tough time these days. Many problems are mainly due to the deterioration of harbor facilities, the shortage of waterfront area and the decrease of the trading volumes. Especially the trading volumes are seriously affected by the Busan New Port, which was not only very close to the Masan Port but constructed in a large scale. For the Masan Port to develop continuously, therefore, it is vital to modernize harbor facilities, redevelop the old harbor, expand its waterfront, construct green port and develop harbor for sightseeing. At the same time, Masan port should be ready to develop a higher value added port. To vitalize Masan port's economy, we have to push forward a differentiation strategy that makes Masan port specialized harbor for distributing goods like hard and heavy cargo.

글로블 대형요트산업은 리먼사태 때 잠시 주춤했지만 여전히 고속성장하는 고부가가치산업으로, 이탈리아, 네덜란드 터키 등 유럽의 해양레저선진국이 거의 시장을 주도하고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 아직 대형요트를 건조한 실적은 전무하지만, 중소형조선소가 경제적 어려움을 겪는 현시점에서 국내 조선기술, 부품소재기술, ICT 등 관련기술수준을 감안한다면 진출해볼만한 신성장분야인 것은 분명하다. 이 연구에서는 메가요트 국산화 개발방안을 제시하고자 한다.

동북아 물류중심국가로의 도약은 바다를 건너야만 가능하다. 주변국인 중국, 일본 등과의 교역에 해상을 이용해야 하기 때문이다. 삼면이 바다로 둘러싸인 우리나라는 부산신항, 광양항의 투포트 시스템으로 신라시대의 장보고 대사가 이뤘던 해상왕국을 다시한번 이루고자 노력하고 있다. 그 선두에 해양수산부가 21세기 선진 해양한국 실현이라는 비젼을 가지고 항해하고 있다. 그만큼 우리나라는 바다가 중요하다. 오는 5월 31일 제 10회 바다의 날을 맞이하여, 강무현 해양수산부 차관을 만나 동북아 물류중심국가에서 해운업의 중요성을 다시한번 되새겨 보고 해양수산부의 올해 주요 추진정책과 물류기업을 위한 계획에 대해 들어보았다.

Busan port's main function is handling container cargo compared to world major ports and the percentage of handling general cargo such as dirty bulk cargo is very low. In other words, although total cargo weight of Busan port that recorded the handling result of 13.29million TEU in 2008 reached 113.05million ton, total cargo weight of general cargo was 15.31million ton, so container cargo accounted for 88.1% of whole cargo weight. However, it is the time to create high added value by the increase of handling and marketing dirty bulk cargo. Originally, the dirty bulk cargo was not the avoided object from the first. Somehow, it is a very high added value cargo, and is surely essential strategic material to basic industries of nation. However, it becomes dirty bulk cargo as the companies are reluctant to handle it because of environmental problem, distinct characteristic in handling, uncertain break even point due to imbalance between supply and demand compared to container cargo. However, items that are classified as dirty bulk cargo now are certainly necessary strategic materials to national basic industries or national life. Besides it seems to be a high added value cargo here and now. Therefore, it is time that increasing of handling dirty bulk cargo by marketing it and the system for efficient handling such as constructing the exclusive use wharf in Busan port, modernizing of facilities and equipments, stable secure of place for holding and handling through development of distribution complex by item, efficient data processing and closer cooperation by setting up a SCM of related authorities are needful.

Yeosu Gwangyang Port, along with Busan Port, Incheon Port, Ulsan Port, and Pyeongtaek Dangjin Port, serves as Korea's top five ports for trade on the southern coast. It is the second largest port in Korea after Busan Port, and the largest port in terms of import and export volume. Yeosu Chemical Industrial Complex, the world's largest chemical industrial complex, has continued to grow rapidly, but recently, the increase in volume has been decreasing. Therefore, this study sought to find major development strategies for the development of Yeosu Gwangyang Port and to derive the priorities of the strategies. To this end, the development strategy of Yeosu Gwangyang Port was divided into three major categories: operation revitalization, infrastructure construction, and policy support using the AHP analysis technique and analyzed again in two aspects: short, medium, and long term. As a result of the analysis, 'integrated operation of container docks and strengthening competitiveness' were considered the most important in short- and medium-term policies. It is believed that it will be necessary to integrate container operators, establish routes in preparation for entry of super-large ships, and install large cranes. In the long-term policy, the most important thing was to foster high value-added industries based on local industries. It is believed that strategies are needed to attract companies from outside regions through the settlement support system. The results of this study are expected to be used to establish development strategies for Yeosu Gwangyang Port and to establish investment priorities.
