The container port industry in Asia represents a dynamic aspect of the international transport and logistics scene. This book applies an overarching theme of 'Development, Competition and Co-operation' to a wide range of individual container ports in Asia. Major trends are identified and concrete examples provide new insights into the nature of relationships between the main ports in the region. The contents provide a great deal of new analysis that contributes to theoretical and conceptual debates on the nature of port competition. More generally, it will aid understanding of port development strategies within the context of Asian trade and economic growth.
