1. Introduction Containerization growth rate 6-7%, doubling of demands within a ten years and quadruple its volume the next four decades Customers, land-side as well as sea-side, concentrate and gain individual market power Cargo lot sizes and ships are getting larger Shipowners are extending their business within the intermodal chain Competition as a challenge to ports “21st century with the spirit of challenge”
2. Basic concepts What is maritime industry? Seaports are areas where there are facilitates for berthing or anchoring ships and where there is the equipment for the transfer of goods from ship to shore or ship to ship. Source:Patrick Alderton,1999, Port Management and Operation, p-2
2. Basic concepts Types of port ownership and administration State ownership Autonomous Municipal ownership Private ownership
3. Analysis of technological changes Historical changes in cargo/container- handling The period before 1800 The period 1800-1850 The period 1850-1900 The period 1900-1970 1970 to the present

8. Port policies and strategies of port management’s 1. National policy implications The need for international policy harmonization The need for commercially based policies The need for local independence The role of private enterprise
Local area authorities Customers (shippers) Pressure groups (environ- mentalists) Trade unions National government Port Management International regulations Competition from Neighboring ports Customers (shipowners) Regional trade arrangements 8.

8. Port policies and strategies of port management’s The port authorities are having to improve in three areas: 1. Equipment decisions, 2. Terminal management systems and 3. Infrastructure

8. Port policies and strategies of port management’s The ultimate goal in the paperless port of tomorrow’s world is to integrate all those involved in freight handling and maritime traffic into the port information network 2. Improve Terminal Management system
8. Port policies and strategies of port management’s 3. Development in port/terminal infrastructure “the berth must wait for the ship not the ship for the berth” Increase terminal capacity Optimum number of berths, berth size and layout Multipurpose berth Combined container transport systems

8. Port policies and strategies of port management’s Improve Logistics and/or Intermodal Transport Improvement of Land-management Improvement of Port Management Environmentally Sensitive Port Development Port Promotion
Recommendation there is a need for an international harmonization of policies based on the financial viability of ports consistent with more local decisions and a greater role for private enterprise focus more on those activities based on the economies of scale or scope, this may cover both the provision of facilities and services might be achieve by a program of performance benchmarking, which provide up to date information on technologies and systems performance in leading ports/terminals around the world the port authority might see itself as a leader in setting ‘dissatisfactions’, not as a defender of the status quo the port authority should seek out areas for improvement, not wait for the complaints of shippers or shipping lines
“World peace through world trade. World trade through world ports” 21st century with the spirit of challenge
