The results showed that Long Khanh is the most appropriate location for the distribution center as it is ranked first in the order of preference for selection.

In terms of theoretical contribution, the proposed criteria can contribute to literature review in the selection of location as well as the concept of distribution center.

The impacts include the changing role of seafarers on-board and the strategies required to engage seafarers in their transition from traditional shipping to autonomous and smart shipping. The paper concludes that Industry 4.0 is being challenged for its shortfall in recognition of the importance of human role and its intelligence in the expected current industrial revolution. As a result, there is a demand to look further and beyond Industry 4.0 by introducing the next generation of industrial revolution, namely Industry 5.0.
