The rail link is of utter significance both to Ethiopia and to Djibouti, as it would not only renovate this tiny African nation into a multimodal transport hub but also will provide competitive advantage over other regional ports.

However, as a part of GTP of Ethiopia this project has been restored with Chinese intervention. The operation expected in 2016. The proposed project is likely to provide multiple benefits such as time saving, reduction in road maintenance costs, fuel savings, employment generation, reduction in pollution, foreign exchange earnings and revenue generation. These benefits will accrue to government, passengers, general public and to society in nutshell. Here an economic analysis has been carried out to evaluate certain benefits that the project will realize against the cost streams in 25 years. The NPV of the cost streams @ 12% calculated to be 6831.30 million US$. The economic internal rate of return of investments will be 18.90 percent.

  • 1. the Services Sector (Mainly Port Services) Plays a Key Role in Djibouti's Economy, Particularly in Terms of Jobs and Contribution to the GDP
    WT/TPR/S/159/Rev.1 Trade Policy Review Page 48 IV. ANALYSIS OF TRADE POLICY AND PRACTICE BY SECTOR (1) GENERAL REMARKS 1. The services sector (mainly port services) plays a key role in Djibouti's economy, particularly in terms of jobs and contribution to the GDP. Port services make Djibouti a net exporter of services, although its potential for trade in services remains under-exploited. The desire to make better use of its comparative advantages in this area has led the Government to draw up strategies, inter alia, for structural reform (including privatization) and financing (notably in partnership with other countries, the United Arab Emirates in particular). 2. The reforms under way and those envisaged for the future provide for the State's withdrawal or reduced State intervention in key activities such as the supply of telecommunications, water, electricity and transport services and postal services. Djibouti's commitments under the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) are confined to some postal and courier services, hotel and restaurant services, telecommunications, and cultural and sporting services (underwater diving centre). 3. Djibouti has hardly any known mining resources, and the conditions are ideal for agricultural production. Organizational constraints, including the infrastructure and strategic weaknesses (by increasing production costs) are an obstacle to the only possibility for Djibouti to produce goods, namely, local processing of imported inputs. Consequently, domestic production of goods is marginal and the majority of strategies drawn up to remedy this situation take a long time before actually being implemented.
