This study is to examine the current situation of the AEC (ASEAN Economic Community) and analyze macroeconomic situation of Vietnam since the launch of AEC. According to recent trade indicators, Vietnam is expected to be more productive in the manufacturing and processing sectors because it is at the heart of the global value chains (GVCs) in electronics, telephones, and textiles and shoes industry. Vietnam has signed or is negotiating free trade agreements with various countries around the world including Korea, Israel, EU and RCEP and so on. Therefore, it is expected that Vietnam's trade dependency and FDI inflows to Vietnam increase more and more. However, the fact that the proportion of exports by foreign-invested companies accounts for about 70% of the total exports implies the uncertainty of Vietnam's economy in the future. Attracting FDI investment can further reduce the competitiveness of domestic companies in Vietnam. Therefore, in order for Vietnam to maintain sustainable development in the future, it is necessary to reform the momentum of foreign-invested enterprises to the development of Vietnamese companies.

This study examines the competitiveness of Korean golf industry and forecasts the demand for golf tourism to diminish the deficit of tourism revenue through revitalizing domestic market for golf. A comparative investigation of the golf expenses shows that the price competitiveness of golf fee and equipments is significantly lower than the competing destinations. For instance, a price of golf tourism package in South east Asian countries, that includes accommodation for three nights and a round-trip airfare, is even lower than the price of three sets of rounding during the weekend in Korea. Plus, the economic impacts analysis shows that if the current regulations regarding domestic golf industry are to be maintained, the competitiveness of Korean golf industry is likely to get worse due to an excessive tax burden, which may result in the increased deficit of tourism revenue. It is expected that the enhanced competitiveness of Korean golf industry will help overcome the current economic crisis of Korea.

기후변화에의 대응을 위한 기회비용이 점차 커지고 있으며 이에 대한 적절한 대응의 확립은 곧 미래의 국가 경쟁력의 수립으로 이어질 수 있다. 이러한 대응은 기후변화 영향이 주는 시장실패를 최소화하며 주어진 조건하에서의 최적의 자원배분을 가능하게 하는 요건이라 하겠다. 기후변화의 영향이 미치는 자원배분의 효과를 고려하여 기후변화를 위한 예산의 적절한 확립이 필요할 수 있다. 극심한 기후변화의 진행과 더불어 물관리 재정은 그 규모의 증가가 요구되며 동시에 기후변화를 반영하는 구체적이고 새로운 체계를 요한다 하겠다. 그러나 이에 부응한 물관리 재정정책의 역할의 중요성에 비하여 기후변화를 위한 명확한 정책의 확립은 미흡한 현실이라 할 수 있다. 기후변화의 대응에 대한 비전과 전략의 확립이 물관리 재정에도 필요할 수 있으며 우리는 이전의 피상적인 부처별 예산배분의 정책에서 탈피하여 좀도 확고한 물관리 재정의 확립을 이룸이 필요하다 하겠다. 기후변화의 영향을 완화하고 또 그에 적응하고자 하는 제 정책의 결정과정은 현재의 수용력(capacity)을 변화시킬 수 있는 부존자원의 사용 여부와 직접적으로 연관되어 있음을 부인할 수 없다. 본 연구는 구체적인 예산의 활용방안에 관하여 기후변화 과정 속에서 적응하며 진화하는 물관리 재정의 형태 및 속성을 구분 점검한다. 나아가 우리의 지역별 유역별 시나리오의 변화의 과정 속에서의 기후변화대비 완화와 적응의 틀에서 정책적 조합의 모습을 진단한다. 현재의 예산 정책에 대한 확인으로 그 효과성을 점검하는 방법론의 제시 속에서 기후변화 대비 효과적인 재정정책은 지역별 사회경제시나리오와의 관계 속에서 확립됨을 보임으로써 정책제언이 가능함을 보인다.

The potential competitiveness for new routes and resources has been theoretically discussed with regards to the Arctic route but is gradually becoming a reality as global warming increases. In June of 2017, China officially included the Northern Sea Route (NSR) as part of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and major countries' interests in the NSR are greatly expanding. This paper presents the general characteristics of the NSR, NSR development in China, the expected relationship between the NSR and the BRI, and this relationship's implications for Korea. The NSR has poor facilities and information infrastructure and is not economically viable for commercial navigation due to its high-cost conditions compared to competitive routes. In order to explore the Arctic and develop the NSR, large-scale projects must be funded over a long period of time; this has caused major difficulties in development. However, as the NSR is included in the BRI, there could be an opportunity to utilize BRI funds, such as Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). Further, China's NSR development and the NSR development of partner countries, such as Korea, should be further stimulated. As Korea has strengths in terms of its shipbuilding technology and geographical location, which is located at the core of the NSR, Korea would have chances to expand the economic cooperation and business opportunities with China and Russia.

현 방제작업의 노동집약적, 비효율적, 작업기피성 등을 고려할 때, 농산물의 경제적 생산을 위한 소형무인 항공방제기술을 개발하여 효율적이며 안정된 생산과 농업종사자의 작업환경을 개선하고 생력화함으로써 품질 및 가격에서 경쟁력을 갖출 수 있다. 연구에서 고찰한 내용을 요약하면 다음과 같다. \circled1 노동강도가 큰 수도작의 발제작업 및 적기성에 있어서 항공방제기술의 도입이 절실하다. \circled2 소형헬기의 작업능률은 30-50 ㏊/day로 소규모 지역에서 효율적으로 수행할 수 있다. \circled3 ULV (ultra low volume) 항공방제용 등록약제의 실적용이 가능하다. \circled4 일본의 경우 무인헬기를 이용한 방제 연면적은 44만 ㏊에 이르고 점차 증가하고 있다. \circled5 적기방제, 소규모 정밀방제, 환경과 소음 대책이 타 방법에 비하여 양호하다. \circled6 무인헬기를 이용한 방제작업은 작업자의 노동강도를 현저히 줄일 수 있다. \circled7 농업항공협회 등 안전운용체계를 확립하여 소형헬기의 안전한 운용을 추구해야한다. 현재 일부 방제 및 파종에 사용되는 유인헬기가 외국으로부터 도입되어 일부 사용되고 있으나 상기의 이유로 무인으로 작업이 가능한 소형 헬기의 개발이 절실한 실정이며 특히 항법시스템은 국가 간 기술적으로 폐쇄성이 강한 분야로 독자개발이 필요하다. 소형 무인 헬기의 농업이외의 적용 분야는 많으며 상업용 촬영, 군경용 감시 및 레저용 등으로 그 경제/산업적 파급 효과는 크다 하겠다.

This study analyzes the current status and performance of regional industrial policy in the face of the weakening industrial competitiveness under the global trend of the 4th industrial revolution and suggests the policy direction that regional industrial policy as a new national growth strategy. This study focuses on the suggestion of new regional industrial policy framework under new policy environment based on literature review. We propose a new industrial policy framework that simultaneously pursues equality between regions and efficiency within the region at the same time. As a core policy recommendation, we suggest first, establishing the region-centered industrial policy governance, second, strengthening planning function of local government through human resource development and institutionalized national government consulting, and the third, constructing lifestyle industry-ecosystem based on cultural asset and identity of region, fourth, utilizing Smart City, as a platform for participatory innovation, entrepreneurial and capital attraction, and cultivating new industry based on public procurement and data. Main suggestions of this study would be a new guideline coping with the declining industrial competitiveness and the Fouth Industrial Revolution. Details would be necessary.

Patent indicators were used to analyze the movements of local industries in order to derive blank technologies due to rapid changes in technology in the 4th Industrial Revolution and to discover promising technologies. Currently, Changwon-si is gathering a lot of technical information to develop hydrogen electric vehicle technology as a future regional flagship industry to discover it as a promising technology in the future. Collecting technical information has many problems in terms of time and cost due to classification methods, technical trends, and similar technologies. Therefore, a systematic classification of technical information and a method for easily deriving technical trends are needed. In this paper, we analyzed the blank technology and promising technology trends for the future core industries of the region through the method of measuring the growth rate of patents and the frequency of patent application through the patent indicators.

Yangsan ICD (Inland Container Depot) has played an important role for Busan Port and Korea's port & logistics industries, increasing international logistics competitiveness and containers' transportation competitiveness in Busan region dealing with 1330 thousand TEU in 2005, since its opening in March 2000. However, it is necessary to seek new measures to revitalize Yangsan ICD, since its cargo volume decreased rapidly owing to the opening of Busan New Port and hinterland in 2006. This study constructed an evaluation model using AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and conducted a survey targeting local businesses and persons concerned in Yangsan ICD to seek measures for revitalization. The results suggest that Yangsan ICD needs to switch functions to logistics centers (terminal facilities, logistics warehouse) for revitalization considering its advantage of facility location. Moreover, by extending the utilization period and securing building-to-land ratio, existing and new businesses' stable activity should be guaranteed. Furthermore, utilizing facilities such as the railway station in ICD, an active railway revitalization policy may increase cargo volume. Yangsan ICD should perform its role as an inland logistics depot through the revitalization of railway freight transportation in the national logistics system focusing on road freight transportation.
