  • AEW Asia Pacific Research
    AEW RESEARCH A Focus on Greater Seoul Logistics ASIA PACIFIC | OCTOBER 2020 The logistics market in Greater Seoul has grown rapidly in the last few years on the back of a rapid expansion in the e-commerce sector. E-commerce has thrived due to unique features such as the high internet penetration rate as well as a densely populated city area. While significant investment has already been made into the logistics sector, the scope for more growth is substantial and warrants further attention. Underlying consumer trends will translate into sustained demand for Grade A logistics facilities by e-commerce players, retailers and third-party logistics players (3PLs) in the medium term. At the same time, the limited availability of Grade A stock has led to an undersupplied environment, creating opportunities for investment strategies across the risk/return spectrum. In this two-part paper, we outline (A) the positive consumption trends and (B) the underlying favorable fundamentals of the Greater Seoul logistics market that continue to encourage significant investment into the sector. (A) New consumption trends leading to increased demand for Grade A facilities (dry & cold) include: • Further growth in online sales, including a wider volume and variety of goods • Larger segments of the population ordering fresh foods and groceries online • Increasing healthcare and pharmaceutical demands • Acceleration of e-commerce growth and expansion of inventory due to COVID-19 (B) The favorable fundamentals of the Greater Seoul logistics market include: • Pent-up demand for Grade A facilities as a result of a large proportion of obsolete stock • Varying supply trends by submarket could present a favorable rental outlook for some areas • Increasing demand for cold storage coupled with limited supply should result in upward rental pressure in the near to medium term These favorable factors are expected to translate to attractive total returns for the sector and should continue to invite significant investment from domestic and cross-border investors in the medium-term.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2019 Remarks to United States Troops at Osan Air Base in Pyeongtaek, South Korea June 30, 2019 The President. Thank you very much, Osan. Thank you very much. This is great. Oh, that sounds good. But the other, actually, even sounds better, I have to say. Thank you very much. And at ease. At ease, everybody. We're going to have some fun. [Laughter] So we're about 2½ hours late. I understand, instead of losing people, you actually gained people; I don't know how that worked, but I know it worked. You've got a hell of a lot of people here. A lot of great—a lot of great military—military people. So it was a little unexpected. We'll tell you—we're not going to—oh, look at all that media back there. Wow, that's a lot of media. [Laughter] That's a lot. We have a lot of media following us. We're doing a great job. And I'll tell you, you're doing a great job, and so important. But the reason: I met with Kim Jong Un. And we had a great meeting, because we're all in this together. We want to get this thing solved. It's been going on for a long time. And we had a great meeting. And it was unexpected. I put out yesterday: Maybe I'll meet with Chairman Kim. And he saw it. Social media. A pretty powerful thing, social media. And we just left. And I said, "You know, this was unexpected, and we're going to keep a lot of thousands of great military people waiting." But that's what you do; you love your country.

  • The Effect of City-County Consolidation in South Korea.Pdf
    The Effect of City-County Consolidation in South Korea by Byoung-Ik Min A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 3, 2013 Keywords: city-county consolidation, technical efficiency, financial status, disparity, local government size, boundary Copyright 2013 by Byoung-Ik Min Approved by Cynthia J. Bowling, Chair, Professor of Political Science and Public Administration Steven Brown, Professor of Political Science and Public Administration Hua Xu, Assistant Professor of Political Science and Public Administration Keren Deal, Professor of Accounting Abstract In 1994, the South Korean central government initiated a massive merger of city and county governments, and during the next two years, a total of 40 consolidated cities were established. Following the city-county consolidations, there has been significant debate regarding whether the local mergers achieved the desired effect. This study seeks to determine whether the technical efficiency of the consolidated governments improved following the mergers, whether their financial status improved, and whether the disparities between the urban and rural areas were reduced. The literature review in this study identifies the most significant literature and the most prominent theories pertaining governmental size and boundary. It also highlights local governmental consolidation studies previously conducted in both the U.S. and South Korea. Finally, it describes the South Korean local governmental structure, and discusses the process of the city-county consolidations that took place in South Korea from 1994 through 1995. To facilitate the research and analysis related to the city-county consolidations in South Korea, this study has identified and tests the following three hypotheses: •H1: The technical efficiency of consolidated governments improved following the city-county consolidations.
