제주도 물류체계 개선을 위한 지원제도에 관한 연구

Abstract

The Gyeong-In Ara Waterway is the first canal in the Korea. The construction began in 2009 and was completed in 2011. The waterway commenced operations in 2012. K-water, which is the Korea water resources corporation in Korea, carried out the project. There are three important functions such as flood prevention, freight transport and a recreational waterfront. The waterway was constructed with a length of 18km, a mean width of 80m and the water depth of 6.3m. There are two ports. Both are located at the end of the waterway. One side is the West Sea and the other side is the Seoul (the capital of South Korea). Each port is composed of a wharf and a port logistics complex. Despite Korean government's effort to shift the transport mode from road to coastal shipping including modal shift subsidy scheme, its effect has not been demonstrated yet. This study aims to present the development strategy of Gyeongin Port with reducing of logistics costs and carbon emissions taken as the basic direction by the support to vitalize short sea shipping, by understanding the present of logistics system between Jeju Island and the mainland, which has been aggravated since the marine accident of the car ferry that carried passengers between Incheon and Jeju in April 2014. This study analyzed the present status and issues of import-export cargo throughput and the priority for the support system designed to reduce logistics cost between Jeju Island and the mainland, and conducted in-depth analysis using the DEA CK model the focusing manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and logistics firms (including shipping company) in Jeju island. As a result of this study, we have revealed that significant differences in awareness of the order of priority in support system to cut logistics costs between Jeju Island and the mainland, or to vitalize coastal shipping were found in extended support to modernize ships and to supply tax-free oil for coastal shipping company. While manufacturing and retail/wholesale companies in Jeju-do island were ranked 1st (5th in supplying tax-free oil to inbound cargo ship) in the category of expanded support for vessel modernization program, logistics companies such as vessel carrier and transportation companies, due to restriction on the support program, received low benefits in real, thus being ranked 6th, the lowest rank (1st in supplying tax-free oil to inbound cargo ship). In conclusion, in order to enhance distribution system in Jeju-do Island, it is necessary to aggressively expand programs to stimulate coastal shipping. Also, problems in distribution system from Jejudo-island and Seoul metropolitan area should be solved using growth strategy linked to Gyeongin port. The main limitations of this study include that countermeasure in substantial industry that utilized these findings could be weakened. Because, government policies such as financial support or tax-free for coastal shipping company have been reduced recently by welfare funding, but the application of the government support for activating the coastal shipping and improvement logistics system in Island are needed aggressive efforts by government.
