摘要

出口主导型战略和生产、运输、流通的全球化,加剧了港口之间的竞争,使之成为全球供应链的竞争。因此,海港的效率和生产力已成为大多数港口的本质问题,特别是在利润丰厚的集装箱装卸业务中。本文采用创新的Luenberger指标分析了2005-2007年期间16个中东和东非海港的港口效率和生产率增长。提出了技术效率变化(管理效能)和技术变化(投资)的测量方法。尽管各港口的结果参差不齐,但本文发现港口生产率普遍下降,随之而来的可能是技能和管理效率的下降。除了少数明显的例外,该区域的港口显示出令人担忧的技术效率下降,尽管往往在采用新技术方面有积极的发展。建议地区政府将必要的政治优先事项和任何必要的预算分配给其港口部门的发展,并明确认识到港口是全球供应链的最重要组成部分,而全球供应链又是出口导向型增长和发展中国家在全球经济中一体化的唯一促进者。

A New Approach in Benchmarking Seaport Efficiency and Technological Change
Export-led strategies and the globalization of production, transport and distribution have intensified competition among ports, turning it into competition among global supply chains. Seaport efficiency and productivity have thus become issues of essence for most ports, particularly in the lucrative business of container handling. The paper uses the innovative Luenberger indicator to analyze seaport efficiency and productivity growth in a sample of 16 Middle East and East African seaports in the period 2005-2007. Measurements of both technical efficiency change (managerial efficacy) and technological change (investment) are presented. Although results are rather mixed among ports, the paper finds a general decline in port productivity, with a possible subsequent decline in skills and management efficiency. With a few notable exceptions, ports in the region demonstrate a worrying decline in technical efficiency, often in spite of positive developments in the adoption of new technology. Regional governments are advised to assign the requisite political priorities, and any necessary budgets, to the development of their port sectors in the clear understanding that ports constitute the most important component of global supply chains which, in their turn, are the sole facilitators of export led growth and integration of developing countries in the global economy.
