Research On Evaluation Of Ports Comprehensive Competitiveness In Pearl River Delta

The fast process of economic globalization and regional economic integration,promote the global industrial transfer and the globalization of production resources allocation.Chinese economics and foreign trade developing rapidly,china has established the status of"world processing factory".Chinese Port industry developing rapidly,the number and size of coastal ports has also increased substantially. The Ports'development can promote the growth of regional economy and the national economy,enhancing regional economic competitiveness.After years of development,China has formed five port groups. Pearl River Delta ports are one of the earliest development port cluster,the most densely distributed and the most competitive one of the port group. In previous studies, the basic no specific port competitiveness of the Pearl River Delta,therefor,this paper analyzes the competitive features of major ports in the Pearl River Delta region,proposes for the Pearl River Delta port competition assessment of the evaluation model and gives the suggestions of how to enhance the competitiveness of the PRD ports.Firstly,the paper studies the competitiveness of major ports in Pearl River Delta, such as Guangzhou port,Shenzhen port and so on.Secondly,the paper comes to the factors that affect Competitiveness of ports and establishes the evaluation index system according to the factors.In determining the weights,the paper use combination of subjective and objective view;In the model-building of evaluation,the paper evaluates the ports by using Several single evaluation methods,and then use Portfolio Assessment based on drift about the evaluation conclusion of single methods so that it can avoid the difference caused by single methods.Finally,the paper gives the suggestions:In short term,the ports in Pearl River Delta should Develop their own competitive advantage and look for cooperation;In long term,the ports in Pearl River Delta should Gradually become integration.Overall,the paper use qualitative method and quantitative methods to study the the competitiveness of ports in Pearl River Delta,giving the quantitative results about the competitiveness of ports and investigating the development strategy by qualitative conclusions,enrichs the content of port study in our country and certain academic and practical value.
