博士 / 國立政治大學 / 資訊管理學系 / 104 / The major contribution of this thesis is the PingTan-Taipei Maritime Express. It represents a new life line to Taiwan economics and serves as the fastest way to save the economy of Taiwan. Taiwan has been lacking behind and has since come in last position amongst the countries known as the Four Asian Tigers (Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and South Korea) due to its poor economic strategies that are mostly due to its bureaucracy, populism and other unexpected factors in the past 28 years.It is suggested that Taiwan should take some of China’s goodwill back to Taiwan and turn it into an economic powerhouse in order to drive foreign trade business opportunities.
To Taiwan, China is still a foreign country; therefore, Taiwan needs to set up cross border warehouses in Pingtan with good connections to One Belt One Road in China’s railroad system. By working hard and having a strategically well executed plan through cross border e-commerce vendors, Taiwan’s goods and products can be sold to China’s major cities, which in turn will help boom Taiwan’s economy for another 10 or 20 years.
Taipei Port and Fujian Pingtan Island are separated by a sea. The Pingtan Island is across from the Taiwan Strait and opposite the Taipei Port. It is also opposite from the mainland coast which are the nearest two ports. These are the only two countries to develop maritime express in the world. Since it is in an excellent location within the same China economic region (Southeast), commodity goods from Taipei to Pingtan Island shipping by maritime express can take as little as three hours. The goods can then quickly be transported to China’s inland and Taiwan Island transportation via the fourth party logistics providers. The spirit of competition and cooperation with each other to create a win-win market in economic thinking is essential. It helps accelerate the development of maritime express between Taipei port and Pingtan Island. This expands both cross strait economic, trade and business opportunities. The industries will benefit on both sides to provide the best express delivery options. The vision of the Taiwanese government is to strengthen cross strait economic and trade relations while also promoting services in free trade.
Based on the ECFA and the WTO’s GATS(General Agreement on Trade in Services), Taiwanese Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF) and Chinese Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS) have reached “Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement” with each other through equal consultation in 2014. “Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement”, however, only mentioned sea and air transport services. Express delivery services are only mentioned as part of the land and did not mention cross-strait maritime express services.
Therefore, our study to investigate the maritime express becomes more valuable. The purpose of this study is to use case study and qualitative research depth interviews to further understand the current maritime express of the required customs clearance. We will explore the possibility of deploying bar code and radio frequency identification technologies into the maritime express processes, to accelerate customs clearance services, and to deploy auto-sort equipment at Taipei Port and PingTan Island express zone respectively.
The shipments can be directly connected by the Pingtan Island (or Taipei) inland. This will ensure transport to the right destination at the hands of the consignees. We should also study the feasibility of providing one-stop services by the fourth party logistics providers at Pingtan Island and Taipei Port.
The results from depth interviews indicate the key factors that influence customs clearance are not only ICT、auto sort system、and the fourth party logistics vendor stationed in the express center but also border control、information exchange、maritime express shipment volume、sea flights intensity、sea flight stability、sea flight channel normalization、information technology、Pingtan Island express center optimization、4PL vendor capability、Pingtan Island environment optimization、human resources (talent staffs)。Other factors that have some or many positively influence to maritime express are One Belt One Road、Cross Boarder E-Commerce vendors、Taiwan to join RCEP (Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership) and AIIB (Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank).
The rise of Cross-Boarder E-Commerce helps increasing maritime shipment volume and the development of Pingtan Island. Taiwan and China government should build overseas warehouses in the Free Trade Zone to support Cross-Boarder E-Commerce. Maritime express between Taipei Port and Pingtan Island brings many Cross-Boarder E-Commerce business opportunities and Cross-Boarder E-Commerce also develops a new O2O (offline to online) business model.
It is suggested that China should be more focusing on the deployment of domestic land express and high speed railroads, Taiwan should be more focusing on overseas Cross-Boarder E-Commerce. It is also imperative to suggest both local related parties to make good use of ICT to accelate customs clearance and subsequent transporation business. Last but not the least, if we have more talent staffs relocated to Pingtan and Taipei Port, the Maritime Express and Cross-Boarder E-Commerce are expected to grow significantly in the future.
