      <title>China's Extra- and Intra-Asian Liner Shipping Connections, 1990-2000</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/772019</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This paper seeks to increase understanding of how China's state-owned shipping industry was reorganized during the 1990s, with special reference to the country's liner shipping connections between and within Asia.  Changes in the organization, approach and set of connections of the state-owned China Ocean Shipping (Group) Company (Cosco) and its post-1993 offshoot COSCO Container Lines Company Ltd. (Coscon) are examined.  This review provides a springboard for a detailed analysis of shifts in both extra- and intra-Asian shipping patterns between 1990 and 2000, and consideration of their strategic implications.  Short-sea shipping is defined, and the phenomenon's operational strengths and weaknesses are discussed.  The study of Cosco/Coscon suggests that the strengths of short-sea liner shipping stem from the ability to use the self-sealing maritime corridor stretching from the Russian Far East to the Indonesian archipelago.  Sea transportation also offers safety, environmental and social benefits compared to competing land-based modes.  The primary weakness is that door-door transport services usually cannot be offered except where dedicated and private terminals are available.  The lack of integration is compounded by the inflexibility on service departures/arrivals.  Coscon is developing services to minimize these weaknesses.]]></description>
