This paper compared the cases of Korea and Japan on the basis of three research goals as follows. Above all, this paper tries to illuminate differences in logistics policies for China in Korea and Japan at governmental levels after understanding their distinct features. Then, after investigating investments of Korean and Japanese firms in China and their specific cases at corporate levels, this paper tries to illuminate similarities and differences of corporate strategies in Korean and Japanese logistics firms. Finally, this paper attempts to derive implications for Korean governments and firms through the comparative study. Main results of this study are as follows. First, even though logistics policies of Korean and Japanese government are similar in admitting the significance of China, Japanese policies are broader by admitting the significance of cooperating with ASEAN nations. Second, Japanese firms provide more diverse entire logistics services and also retained wider logistics networks than Korean counterparts in Chinese logistics markets. Thus, Korean logistics firms need to pursue to establish strategic cooperation with other foreign firms in China.

This paper analyzes the characteristics of change in economic indicators logistics business performance indicators in Japan over the past decade. We compare the differences in management performance of groups related to logistics business strategy. This is because we want to show that the logistics business strategy is reflected in the management performance. Research methods include correlation analysis, crossover analysis, and variance analysis. The main results are as follows. First, logistic companies' sales are highly correlated with economic indicators such as GDP, trade value, and stock price. Second, there is a correlation between the business sectors and the proportion of tangible assets. It is understood that different business strategies are appropriate for each industry and each period. Third, the effects of business strategy variables on business performance variables were significant. In particular, the interaction effect of three variables showed a difference in the effect on the yield. The results of this study provide a better understanding of how logistics companies achieve a high performance in the changing economic environment over the past decade.

일본은 국내기업들이 벤치마킹을 지속적으로 많이 할 정도로 물류산업이 크게 발전된 나라이다. 일본에는 많은 물류관련 단체가 있지만, 그 중에서도 (사)일본로지스틱스 시스템 협회(JILS)는 독보적인 위치에 있으며, 일본 물류발전을 위해 지난 10여 년 동안 크게 기여해 왔다. 이 협회를 이끌어 왔던 모토키 이나스카 전무이사는 오는 6월 18일 정년퇴임을 앞두고 있다. 그는 (사)한국물류협회가 설립될 당시에 우리에게 많은 정보를 제공함은 물론 협회 운영에 대한 조언도 아끼지 않았던 인물로 한국물류발전에도 많은 공헌을 하였다. (사)한국물류협회가 창립 20주년을 맞이하여 준비한 기획인터뷰의 네 번째로 (사)일본로지스틱스시스템협회 모토키 이나스카 전무이사를 만나보았다.

This paper compares the differences in management performance in the logistics market and analyzes the differences in business characteristics depending on the industry types. In addition, the effects of industry types and business characteristics on management performance are examined. The analysis method used is ANOVA and K-means clustering. The implication of the study are as follows. First, in the logistics market in Japan, there was a difference in management performance among the types of industry. The warehousing service type had the highest profitability and stability among all the industry types. Second, differences in business characteristics by industry types were tested. It was found that offshore cargo transportation type was more capital intensive than the other types. In addition, warehousing service type had higher business leadership and credit transaction than others. Third, industry types and clusters based on business characteristics had a significant impact on management performance through interaction effects. For the profitability variables in detail, other clusters had a significant effect between transportation types(onshore and offshore cargo) and warehousing service type. On the other hand, in stability variables, one cluster was effective in all types, which is a characteristic that lowers both capital intensity and business leadership.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the competitiveness of the logistics industry of three countries - Korea, China and Japan - by looking into their logistics industry structure and the related regulations. For this aim, the paper examined the modal distribution of transportation, transport infrastructure, freight cost structure and regulation in transport sector in these countries. Furthermore, this study suggests some proposals for the further cooperation to bring sustainable progress in the logistics sector across Northeast Asia. The main suggestions of this paper are as follows: First, Korean government needs to strategize its options in the logistics industry, the most competitive in the country’s service sector, in upcoming FTA negotiations with China and Japan. Second, Korea needs to foster Busan into a strategic point for the Rail Ferry System and Road Feeder System. Third, Korea should participate in establishing shuttle flight service in Northeast Asia amid exploding flight demand from active economic interchange and tourism industry development.

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.
