Alhamdulillah, my biggest thanks go to Almighty Allah for all of His bless, through His invisible hands guide me to find myself in this point where I’m realizing that everything happen for a reason. I gratefully acknowledge the support and guidance of the Maritime Economics and Logistics Office, Erasmus University Rotterdam, most particularly my thesis supervisor Dr. Simme Veldman. This thesis would never take shape without his deep encouragement and suggestions. I also extend my deepest thanks to my beloved parents, Ayah, and parents in law for their support during my study in Rotterdam since I believe I was able to pass through this hard moment because Allah listens to their pray for me. Special thanks go to my husband, Lendy, for sure, for his constant support, his patience for listening to all of my sad stories and his understanding when I’m in my labile emotion during my study. I will never be here without his endless self-sacrifice. Secondly special thanks are for you, my little baby boy, Dek Hisham, for being such a nice son. You never make me worry, always show your smile and your simple word reminds me to keep struggling and studying well here. My thanks also go out to my family for their love and their pray during my life in Rotterdam, Ika, Afi, Risky, Lutfi, Win, Lus, Putu and Lerdy. I feel that all of you are gifts from Allah for me. I owe special thanks to my Indonesian friends for their assistance and thoughtful comment on my thesis, Topik, for a long discussion we had in the Erasmus library, Kevin and Bagus for the STATA, Ferdhi, Luh and Clara for the “expert judgment” and all friends who helped me gathering the data. I would like to reserve my gratitude to my company, Pelindo III, for giving me opportunity and scholarship for my master program in Erasmus University Rotterdam. Last but not least, I would like to express my thanks to all of my friends in MEL Class 2014/2015. We have spend wonderful times in Rotterdam through the entire worse and best things in our course together. It means a lot. Dwi Sukmawati Syafaaruddin 20 August 2015 iii Abstract Indonesia is one of the biggest archipelagic countries in the world and its strategic location between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean makes maritime sector of great importance. It can be seen from the volume of containerized cargo, which is increasing gradually at the rate of around 7.7% each year. Implementation of domestic law No. 17/2008 on Shipping, eliminates the monopoly power of Pelindo as the main terminal operator and allows new-comers to compete in port business. However, in order to maintain its competitive position as the main terminal operator, Pelindo should maintain its efficiency as that is one of its key success factors. This research uses three types of analyses: demand analysis, efficiency measurement analysis, and supply analysis for 18 container terminals in Indonesia using both time series and cross section data. A demand analysis is conducted by a container throughput projection for every 5 years using a GDP multiplier method, which is based on container throughput and GRDP from 2009 to 2013. The efficiency measurement analysis utilizes a non-parametric method, called Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) that is based on the conditions of 2014. The DEA Constant Return to Scale (CRS) model with input oriented version is used for the measurement of the efficiency performance applying Stata software. Seven input variables are taken namely container yard area, maximum draft, berth length, quay crane index, yard stacking index, vehicle, number of gate lanes and throughput as an output. A port is categorised as efficient, if the outcome equals 1 and inefficient, if it is less than 1. Container terminal supply is evaluated using berth capacity and yard capacity. Berth capacity in TEU/year is calculated by multiplying berth lenght (m) by berth capacity per meter length (TEU/m). Berth capacity per meter lenght is assessed by multiplying call size (moves) with the berth occupancy ratio of each port and Teu factor. Yard capacity in TEU/ year is quantified by multiplying container yard capacity (TEU) by yard maximum utilisation (%) divided by separation factor (%), peaking factor (%) and dwelling time (days). Both throughput as a demand and as a supply capacity will be combined to assess the time when the bottleneck condition occurs. The results show that total throughput projections for 2020, 2025, and 2030 are 23 million TEU/year, 37 million TEU/year, and 58 million TEU/year respectively. In this case, the biggest contributors are Tanjung Priok Port and JICT (23% and 26%). Moreover, by looking at its efficiency score which is equal to 1, it reveals that 7 out of 18 terminals are efficient, namely, Tanjung Priok, JICT, Tanjung Perak, TPS, BJTI, Makassar Port, and UTPM. Furthermore, by looking at their capacity, it appears that 12 out of 18 container terminals carry over 80% of the current demand. Surprisingly, Tanjung Perak has the highest ratio, followed by Tanjung Priok, JICT, KOJA, and TPS. Finally, supply and demand analysis assesses the appropriate time for investment as an indicator of congestion issues. It appears that 7 out of 18 container terminals are not only identified as efficient container terminals, but are also indicated as having the worst congestion conditions. Therefore, in the future, they should tackle the bottleneck issues and consider infrastructure investments to alleviate these congestion bottlenecks. v Table of Contents Acknowledgments .................................................................................................... iii Abstract .................................................................................................................... v Table of Contents .................................................................................................... vii List of Tables ........................................................................................................... ix List of Figures .......................................................................................................... xi List of Abbreviations ............................................................................................... xiii 1.

  • Economic Inequality and Inter-Island Shipping Policy in Indonesia Until the 1960S
    E3S Web of Conferences 202, 07070 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202020207070 ICENIS 2020 Java and Outer Island: Economic Inequality and Inter-Island Shipping Policy in Indonesia Until the 1960s Haryono Rinardi* Department of History ;Faculty of Humanity; Diponegoro University Abstract. This article tries to explain the relationship between economic inequality in Java and outer Java, also the inter-island shipping policy in Indonesia until the 1960s by using the historical methods. This study proves that the inequality had occurred since the colonial era when the Dutch colonial government focused on developing infrastructure on Java as the center of its government. When withdrawn again, inequality has occurred since pre-colonial times. The inter-island shipping policy that places Java as the center of shipping has increasingly encouraged economic inequality. Keywords: Economic Inequality; Inter-island Shipping; Historical Methods; Java and Outer Java; Colonial Era 1 Introduction Inequality and dichotomy between Java Island and other regions in Indonesia are not only real but visible in terminology. The Colonial Government referred to areas outer Java as Buitenbezittingen and then buitengewesten. [1] Therefore it is not surprising that Clifford Geertz, an anthropologist, distinguishes the interior regions of Central Java and East Java and as Indonesia within. Other areas have referred to as outer Indonesia [2]. Obviously, the two regions have different types. The Indonesian region has culturally influenced by Hindu- Buddhist culture. It can seen from the existence of various temples in the P. Java region. Another influence is the persistence of the presence of cultural arts, which is a relic of Hindu- Buddhist culture in Indonesia, such as the Ramayana and Mahabarata epics.

  • Review of Maritime Transport 2018 65
    4 In 2017, global port activity and cargo handling of containerized and bulk cargo expanded rapidly, following two years of weak performance. This expansion was in line with positive trends in the world economy and seaborne trade. Global container terminals boasted an increase in volume of about 6 per cent during the year, up from 2.1 per cent in 2016. World container port throughput stood at 752 million TEUs, reflecting an additional 42.3 million TEUs in 2017, an amount comparable to the port throughput of Shanghai, the world’s busiest port. While overall prospects for global port activity remain bright, preliminary figures point to decelerated growth in port volumes for 2018, as the growth impetus of 2017, marked by cyclical recovery and supply chain restocking factors, peters out. In addition, downside risks weighing on global shipping, such as trade policy risks, geopolitical factors and structural shifts in economies such as China, also portend a decline in port activity. Today’s port-operating landscape is characterized by heightened port competition, especially in the container market segment, where decisions by shipping alliances regarding capacity deployed, ports of call and network structure can determine the fate of a container port terminal. The framework is also being influenced by wide- PORTS ranging economic, policy and technological drivers of which digitalization is key. More than ever, ports and terminals around the world need to re-evaluate their role in global maritime logistics and prepare to embrace digitalization- driven innovations and technologies, which hold significant transformational potential. Strategic liner shipping alliances and vessel upsizing have made the relationship between container lines and ports more complex and triggered new dynamics, whereby shipping lines have stronger bargaining power and influence.

At that time, I concluded in a law review article that this diversion of container cargo was legal under Federal Maritime Commission law and regulation, but would continue to be unresolved until a solution on this cross-border traffic was reached: “Contiguous nations that are engaged in international trade in the age of containerization can compete for cargo on equal footings and ensure that their national interests, laws, public policy and economic health keep pace with technological innovations.” [Emphasis Added] The mark of a successful port is competition. Sufficient berths, state-of-the-art cranes, efficient handling, adequate acreage, easy rail and road connections, and sophisticated logistical programs facilitating transportation to hinterland destinations are all tools in the daily cargo contest.
