Advantages • Not a single scratch found on outside of device product packing boxes confirming suitability of route for shipping precision machinery and other delicate items. • Confirmed ability to transport alcohol, vegetables, and other food products on this route. • Trucks with power supply in the chassis are not available for land transportation between the border of China and Russia (Zarubino to Hunchun). Necessary to verify suitability of transportation method Issues and for items requiring refrigeration. Problems • Takes extremely long to determine whether or not cargo with few prior cases of transportation can be handled (e.g. Russian land transportation company could not determine whether or not they could transport bonded sake until just before arrival in Zarubino port). 5 Pilot Transportat 2019 【Moving Forward】 • Conduct pilot transportation with new types of cargo. • Change freight method and timing and conduct further pilot transportations in order to address issues that arose from the 2018 pilot transportations. • Implement initiatives at Northeast Asia Expo tied to promoting exports to Jilin Province and expanding sales routes. 【Cargo Under Consideration （Tottori←→Jilin Province） 】 • Device product exhibitions for Northeast Asia Expo (Cockpit Display from Japan (NEW).) ⇒Reinstall data logger to conduct further validation on shock and humidity as no data could be collected from this year’s shipping. Export •Food product exhibitions for Northeast Asia Expo (snacks, seasonings, etc.). (NEW) • Sakaiminato refrigerated fishery products (NEW) ⇒Display at Northeast Asia Expo and exhibitions within Changchun city along with other projects will be conducted in connection with expanding sales routes and promoting exports to Jilin Province. •Parts Rack (NEW) • Disposable Chopsticks (NEW) Import • Summer Season Vegetables ⇒Conduct further verification with a midsummer shipment as 2018 shipment occurred in October. Also, conduct further verification with a variety of vegetable for which Japanese customs requires the submission of a quarantine certificate. 【Work Plan in 2019(TBD) 】 August: Pilot transport is to be implemented. December: The Report of the pilot transport and recommendations are to be shared with the members and the secretariat, then submitted to GTI organs/national governments. 6 Proposals for GTI １ GTI Logistics Sub-Committee Initiatives We propose GTI Transport Board to share information about the shipping route serviced by the DBS Cruise Ferry connecting Primorye-1 and Primorye-2 by way of Zarubino port and Vladivostok port, and to discuss about vitalization of those sea-land logistics. ２ Establish Regular Meetings with Authorities of Primorsky Krai Ports and Customs The utilization of ports in Primorsky Krai is important for promoting logistics in Northeast Asia. As such, smooth communication between GTI member regions and the concerned authorities of Primorsky Krai is essential. We found the meeting arranged by the GTI Secretariat with Far East Customs, Vladivostok port, and Zarubino port authorities in April 2018 extremely helpful and recommend the creation of another opportunities for such meetings in the future. ３ Primorsky Krai’s Membership to NEA Local Cooperation Committee Increase of usage of Zarubino port and Vladivostok port and invigoration of the Primorye-1 and Promorye-2 international transport corridors will in turn stimulate further development of Primorsky Krai. As such, we recommend continued efforts to encourage Primorsky Krai’s membership to the NEA Local Cooperation Committee. ４ Implementation of Pilot transport by LCC Members It is important to assess the usability of the route from various aspect. Taking this opportunity of pilot transport by Tottori Prefectural Government, relevant local governments consider implementing their own pilot transport on this route. 7 DBS Cruise Ferry Sea Routes Trans-Siberian Railway Went into service on June, 2009 To Moscow, Europe Vladivostok To Northeastern Area Target freight and passengers from of China proximal major cities as well as Zarubino western region of Japan hours （19 ） Sakaiminato, Tokyo To the Seoul metropolitan area Tottori Donghae （14 hours） DBS Cruise Ferry DBS Transportation Schedule March – November, 2018 ＜Name of vessel＞ M.V.

  • Chapter 6: the Economic Status and Role of Ethnic Koreans in China
    6 The Economic Status and Role of Ethnic Koreans in China SI JOONG KIM China is a multiethnic country officially composed of 56 nationalities, although the number of nationalities may increase if the definition of “nationality” is changed.1 The absolute majority of the Chinese popula- tion are Han nationals, which account for about 92 percent of the total population according to official population data. The remaining 8 percent of the total population, which is still more than 100 million, are composed of the 55 minority nationalities. Among the 55 ethnic minorities in China, the Zhuang are the most nu- merous, with more than 15 million, and the Manchu, Hui, Uygur, Mongol, and Tibetan are relatively well known to the outside world. However, these 55 minority nationalities are quite diverse. Some of the ethnic minorities, such as the Zhuang, Manchu, and Hui, are very much similar to the Han, except for a few cultural aspects. However, other Si Joong Kim is professor of economics at Yeungnam University. He appreciates beneficial comments and valuable references provided by the people whom he interviewed during his research trip to Beijing, Yanji, and Shenyang from July 30 to August 7, 2002. In particular, consul general Joon-Gyu Lee of the Korean Embassy in Beijing, professor Youfu Huang of Central University for Nationalities, professor Seunghun Park of Yanbian University, and Dequan Lee of Liaoning Chosun Wenbao were of great help in writing this chapter. 1. The Chinese government officially recognized 54 minority nationalities among the 183 na- tionalities that were registered in the 1964 census.

  • China's Top Future Leaders to Watch: Biographical Sketches of Possible Members of the Post-2012 Politburo
    China’s Top Future Leaders to Watch: Biographical Sketches of Possible Members of the post-2012 Politburo (Part 1) Cheng Li “Leadership,” noted the distinguished American historian and presidential biographer James MacGregor Burns, “is one of the most observed and least understood phenomena on earth.”1 This remark is particularly insightful when applied to the study of the present situation in China. The country’s upcoming leadership change has been in the spotlight in many parts of the world over the past two years, especially in the wake of the recent dramatic fall of Bo Xilai, a charismatic and notoriously ambitious Politburo member. As China rapidly becomes a global economic powerhouse, its government policies—monetary, trade, taxation, industrial, environmental, energy, foreign, and defense—will have a major impact on the global economy and regional security. At the same time, the Chinese- style collective leadership, which is embodied in the Politburo and especially its Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party—is still a governance experiment for the PRC political system and a mysterious novelty to the outside world. The composition of the new Politburo, including generational attributes and individual idiosyncratic characteristics, group dynamics, and the factional balance of power, will have profound implications for China’s economic priorities, social stability, political trajectory, and foreign relations.2 To a great extent, these leaders’ political position and policy preferences are often shaped or constrained by their personal experience, leadership expertise, factional affiliation, and bureaucratic portfolio. It would be helpful for China watchers overseas to grasp the biographical features of the top Chinese leaders who will likely govern the country for most of this decade and beyond.
