Abstract

After the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, the handling level of container cargoes at Port of Kobe is not resotored to 1994's level yet. Though the reasons are discussed in some papers, it is not so easy to find out the feasible draft. We must patiently gather the basic data by which many people can recognize for the port restoration. In this paper we gather the port and container handling charges at the East Asian Ports, and compare the costs with each other. From the study we can obtain some results as follows. (1) The Port of Kobe should quit the berth management system and change to port management system like the Port of Singapore for the sake of effective port activity. (2) It is clarified that a reason of the high cost of Kobe depends on the many organizations which take the charges. (3) As the charge of transship cargo is cheaper than that of local cargo, the effort of gathering transship cargo is effective to cost down the total charge. (4) In order to gather the cargoes, the Port of Kobe should reconstruct the system of port and handling charge considering the neighbouring ports' ones.
