  • 2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS with WB Case Studies
    2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS WITH WB Case Studies of Korea’s Public-Private Partnership 1 2011 JOINT CONSULTING PROJECTS WITH World Bank (WB) 1. Overview 1.1. Project Background and Objective 1.1.1. Project background Between 2004 and 2011, the Korean Ministry of Strategy and Finance (MOSF) had provided customized policy consulting services for nearly 300 projects in 34 countries as part of the Knowledge Sharing Program (KSP). In 2011, the MOSF newly launched KSP joint consulting with Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs)1, developing the former bilateral partnership (between Korea and a partner country) to a trilateral partnership (among Korea, international organizations and a partner country). In this process, the MOSF concluded a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with five MDBs and established a foundation for joint consulting. In accordance with the MOU, the MOSF implemented KSP joint consulting through discussion with the MDBs including WB, ADB and IDB. KSP is a development partnership project that facilitates economic and social growth of developing countries by sharing Korea's experiences; offering policy research, consulting service and training programs customized to the recipient countries' demand and conditions; and supporting their institution-building and capacity-building efforts. The trilateral KSP, developed from the bilateral KSP, can benefit from regional expertise of the MDBs as well as Korea's experiences of economic development and provide customized consulting service to countries in need. Therefore, it will create synergy effects and deepen a cooperative partnership with the MDBs and with developing countries. 1.1.2. Project objective As part of KSP-MDB joint consulting project, the MOSF and World Bank Institute (WBI) 2 agreed to conduct case studies of successful Public Private Partnership (PPP) in Korea.

  • High-Speed Rail in Korea: Lessons for the Midwest
    High-Speed Rail in Korea: Lessons for the Midwest The Republic of Korea (South Korea) launched Korea Train eXpress (KTX) in 2004, becom- ing the fifth nation to launch high-speed rail service. South Korea has developed its high-speed rail infrastructure in a phased, blended approach that could provide an implementation model for high-speed rail development in the Midwest. The nation’s manufacturers have made great strides in developing next generation high-speed rail technology and could be a significant resource for equipment and expertise as the Midwest progresses with its plans. Midwest High Speed Rail Association, December 7, 2013 1 Routes Used by KTX Trains Midwest High Speed Rail Association, December 7, 2013 2 The Market South Korea has population of 50 million—which is slightly larger than the combined popula- tions of Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Missouri, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. And yet this na- tion occupies only about 38,000 square miles, slightly less than the area of Ohio. The city proper of Seoul, the nation’s capital, has a population of more than 10 million. Nearly 26 million people live in the entire metropolitan area. The nation’s Gross Domestic Product, at just over $1 trillion, ranks 15th among the world’s economies—approximately equal to the combined economies of Illinois and Ohio, the Midwest’s two largest states. South Korea’s primary transportation axis runs from Seoul to Busan, the country’s second largest city with a population of 3.4 million. A secondary population belt stretches along the western coast from Seoul to Mokpo.

  • Disruptive Technologies Transforming Urban Mobility? the Role of the Ecobee Urban Maglev System in the Seoul Traffic Vision 2030, South Korea
    ТРАНСПОРТНЫЕ СИСТЕМЫ И ТЕХНОЛОГИИ ОРИГИНАЛЬНЫЕ СТАТЬИ 115 TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS AND TECHNOLOGY ORIGINAL STUDIES DOI 10.17816/transsyst201843s1115-123 © M. Hekler1, J. Klühspies2 1 Institute CERM (Center for Education & Research on Mobility) 2 The International Maglev Board (Deggendorf, Germany) DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES TRANSFORMING URBAN MOBILITY? THE ROLE OF THE ECOBEE URBAN MAGLEV SYSTEM IN THE SEOUL TRAFFIC VISION 2030, SOUTH KOREA The dynamics and extent of disruptive technologies have been very well developed in Asian cities by the beginning of the 21st century, and are becoming particularly future- oriented. It also appears that urban mobility strategies in Asia are hardly slowed by resistance such as seen in the European context, where holding on to existing systems is the norm. The effects of accelerated mobility strategies in Asia are already apparent compared to what may be expected in Europe. So one could ask, which innovation processes will allow mobility to further develop? How will urban transport systems likely change in the future to minimize adverse impacts of current forms of mobility? In looking forward, any implementation of innovative mobility strategies heavily depends on spatial structures, transport networks and technologies as well as a political planning and decision-making. In Asia, concepts of transport and innovative transportation concepts (such as Rotem’s Ecobee Urban Maglev) are developing with considerable promise, which, if successful, can turn into trendsetters with considerable future relevance on a global scale. Aim: The aim is to identify relevant effects of new mobility strategies on cities and to analyze to what extent so called disruptive transport technologies are considered. The city of Seoul with its transport strategy 2030 and the disruptive maglev system Ecobee serves as an example.
