AHP 기법을 활용한 우리나라 항만개발사업 중요 요인분석 연구

Abstract

Port development in Korea is carried out according to the procedures established by various laws. Basically, port development projects are carried out based on the ‘Master Plan of National Port’, which is established every 10 years and revised every 5 years in accordance with the Port Act. The criteria for selecting projects in the master plan are based on the estimated cargo or passenger volumes transported and the demand survey of local governments and port authorities. Therefore, problems in the legal and institutional aspects such as legal restrictions and project processes, problems in the economic aspect related to investment and its preservation, problems in the social aspect such as local harmonization, and the environment are occurring. In this study, for the purpose of identifying and improving the difficulties and problems of port development projects, a survey was conducted using a group of experts in the port industry, and the importance was analyzed through AHP analysis. As a result, the following implications are presented. First, it is necessary to establish a policy to expand and revitalize Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects in order to solve the problem of financing and investment preservation. Second, it is necessary to improve the development circumstance by reorganizing the laws and systems for each type of port development project to prevent conflicts and unnecessary waste. Third, as shown in the analysis results, port experts and stakeholders still consider the quantitative growth of ports more important than the qualitative growth, and it is urgent to change their perception of ports for the development of advanced ports.
