What logistics can do for Vietnam

Improve competitiveness of Logistics can reduce the cost of imports and exports, and
exports can expand its services to third countries

Strengthen the country's Logistics could improve Vietnam's position as a destination

brand at international level for investment, associated with the efficiency of its production
and services

Create specialised Logistics creates net, stable employment; job specialisation

employment favours employment stability

Contribute to regional Logistics attract investments, opens new opportunities for

development connections, creates employment and avoids rural-urban
migration, increasing producers' margins

Reduce the cost to the Logistics reduces distribution costs at national and urban
consumer levels, and can favour the growth of locally specialised SMEs

Development of the Strategic Plan for Transport and Logistics (SPTL), as a tool to
define long-term strategies and immediate actions to improve transport systems

Justification for the development of SPTL

• Significant growth of international transport flows, for both freight and passengers
• The transport system in a country is decisively influenced by the principles of the international
conventions and agreements that apply to its immediate region. These conventions demand for a clear
facilitation of trade flows (in other words, competitive transport and logistics network)
• In order to reduce transportation costs, producers/shippers must rely on a proper inter-modal system
that facilitates the choice of the most suitable and competitive option for each case.
• A Strategic Plan for Infrastructure and Transport (SPTL) represents a tool for governments to frame their
actions in the medium term
• Transport security is a particularly important challenge. It is essential to act homogeneously across the
different modes of transport

• All public policy has several phases of development: • A strategic approach must include:

− Identification and definition of problems − A challenging vision and aligned with the overall environment

− Creation of the policy − Ongoing analysis of the situation of the transport system in the
country
− Adoption of the decision
− A set of objectives
− Implementation
− A set of actions according to a timeline and grouped into areas
− Evaluation of action

A key factor in the definition of a National Transport and Logistics Plan is the
countries’ development stage

Characteristic aspects of the models Role of logistics in the cases analysed

• Countries with significant improvements between 2007 and 2010 in LPI

• South Korea: Planning process dating back to the
1970s; staged development of transportation plans
and a last logistics-oriented plan in the 2000s
• Brazil: Plan essentially focused on infrastructure
reports have been those that implemented broad trade and logistics
reforms, as is the case in Colombia, Brazil and Tunisia
• There is a clear preponderance of the more developed economies, led by
Finland
Logistics Performance Index

• Finland: Significant level of progress achieved in

the field - optimization of logistic processes
(reduced costs, improved time), training of
specialized human resources and R&D+i

• Spain: Regionalization resulting from membership

in the European Union

• Colombia: Institutional structure, planning,

management and monitoring
Source: ALG based on data taken from the World Bank 2010
• Tunisia: Investment in infrastructure and
improvement in the quality of services, emphasizing Positive trends in some areas essential to logistics performance and trade:
its global positioning institutionalization, customs modernization, generation of statistical
information, use of information technology and the development of quality
logistics services

South Korea is the best example of how an emerging country has
managed to establish a comprehensive national plan in a
progressive fashion
Planning process
• One of the largest economies in the world (13th position in
terms of GDP)
• In 60 years: a precarious infrastructure level considering it is
one of the most developed nations in the world
• Since its national inception, long-term vision not rooted in a
specific period of government
• Investment in a phased manner, starting from basic
provisioning
• After this period, the creation of national plans began,
totalling four to date:
• First plan: 1970s, investment in areas with export potential,
resulting in performances of expanding highways, railway
construction and investment in port capacity
• Second plan: 1980s, similar orientation to the previous plan,
including tax incentives
• Third plan: 1990s, need to meet international standards, benefit
from them and in turn achieve intra national development
• Fourth plan: Services and Infrastructure Development Plan;
national plan geared to developing logistics services, with the goal
of reaching developed country status by 2020
Consultancy Services for the Support to the Ministry of Transport on Developing Multi-Modal Transport
Short Training Courses for Transport & Logistics Stakeholders
What is the catalyst for promoting a National Transport and
Logistics Plan?
• 2003-2008, actions that sought to transform the country's
logistics structure, considered until then to be ineffective,
mainly due to high logistics costs
• Actions aimed to optimize the processes of Korean foreign
trade with third countries, projecting a regional scale, acting
on infrastructure to support logistics processes
What organisations will participate/be affected by the planning
process?
• Presidential Committee for the NEA Business hub consisting
of: representatives of the ministries (transport, logistics,
trade and customs), the private sector (industrial, cargo
companies), and the academic sector
• Coexisting with the National Logistics Plan (Korean Ministry
of Land, Construction and Transportation, until 2020)
• In 2004 the Presidential Committee for NEA Cooperation
Initiative, adding an area of economic and cultural
cooperation across the region

Finland’s geographical location results in high logistics costs, far
above any other country in the European Union
Planning process
• Early twentieth century: policies related to infrastructure and
services, new transport infrastructure provision and
maintenance of existing policies
• The country develops an adequate supply of land transport
infrastructure for the internal movement of goods and trade
with neighbouring territories
• Early 2000’s: restrictive management of transport
infrastructure is limiting the country’s effort to adapt to global
competition.
• Action is taken to define new development projects and
funding models. At the same time, resources allocated into
transport infrastructure maintenance are increased.
• A Logistics Action Plan is developed, incorporated as a
Mandatory Plan within the Government Program. It
integrates the various elements of logistics support
processes: investment in infrastructure, creating nodes of
international trade, optimization of border crossings with
Russia, push for ICT and R&D with high international
standards, improvements in the supply and efficiency of
services, corporatization of logistics activities
Consultancy Services for the Support to the Ministry of Transport on Developing Multi-Modal Transport

The Spanish planning process responds to the evolution amongst
the various transport modes
Planning process
• Evolution of the transport modes, without an integrated
service or stable cooperation among the entities responsible
for the planning process
• Since 1960, continuous growth of Spanish infrastructure
• In the late twentieth century, Infrastructure Master Plan
1993-2007 was developed. Targets based on transport
trends
• Definition of long-term targets for the overall national
transport system were hampered by institutional lack of
coordination
• The Strategic Plan for Freight Transport by Road was
published in 2001. It incorporates all of the action steps in
order to identify the critical elements and to promote
strategic measures
• In late 2004, the Strategic Plan for Infrastructure and
Transport 2005-2020 (SPIT) was developed. It included a
set of policies designed to optimize the use of infrastructure,
integrate services, increase safety and improve energy
efficiency

modes of transport, promotion of R&D+i programs and
information management and operation of transport services
(implementing ICT)
• Improve efficiency in terms of service quality, strengthen territorial
cohesion and promote socio-economic development and
competitiveness
• Investment in the transport sector is aligned with the objectives of
the EU to stabilize the division amongst transport modes, thereby
increasing the participation of those modes that are less polluting
What organisations will participate/be affected by the planning
process?
• Ministry of Development: responsible for drafting the SPIT,
with the cooperation and advice of a multi-sectoral forum,
composed of representatives from business, labour,
technical, professional and social sectors

Colombia changed its perspective towards an integrated national
transport plan, introducing the logistics concept
Planning process
• Last quarter of the twentieth century: instrumental in the
development of road infrastructure in the country, giving
continuity to regional integration projects and strengthening
international trade
• 1980s: the government started to consider transportation
studies and nationwide plans. It was not until 1994 when the
Transportation Master Plan was developed, yet it failed to
unify the policies needed to address the sector
• 2002: The Strategic Transportation Plan was drafted. It
provided guidelines to assist in the development of the
sector
• 2005: Colombia changed their perspective towards an
integrated national transport plan
• 2006: the Colombian government established the National
Competitiveness System through which was created the
National Logistics Policy

What is the catalyst for promoting a National Transport and
Logistics Plan?
• Recognizes the importance of logistics to the development of
Tunisia: the export ratio of GDP will be representative,
whenever possible the duplication of logistics flows and the
reduction of logistics costs over a period of 10 years
• In a context analysis, gaps are highlighted in logistics
infrastructure which affects storage problems
• The context is compounded given the low professionalism in
the logistics services sector and the fragmentation in the
road freight sector
What organisations will participate/be affected by the planning
process?
• The entity that has led the planning process has been the
Tunisian Ministry of Transport
• Additionally, some of the specific projects carried out, such
as the Study on Implementation Opportunities for Logistics
Platforms have been carried out by the Ministry of
Infrastructure and Planning. Nonetheless, the Ministry of
Transport is responsible for conducting the feasibility studies
of the proposed platforms
23
In the last five years, Tunisia has introduced an accelerated growth
driven largely by actions in logistics

Focus of the
program
The study has led to the proposal of a Logistics Action Plan (LAP), divided into five strands:

• Logistics coordination at national level, including the creation of a Logistics Centre

• Development of logistics infrastructure in Tunisia: adaptation to future needs
• Organization of business logistics
• Development of professional skills related to logistics
• Create logistics that are attractive to the international environment

After twenty years of absence in transportation planning, Brazil
resurfaces with a National Plan for Logistics and Transportation

Focus of the
program • Redo the planning process in the transport sector, providing it with a permanent structure for
process management

• Consideration of the total cost of the logistics chain from origin to destination, reaching an
optimization and rationalization of the costs associated with it, rather than the simple
consideration of the operational costs of the various transport modes involved

• The diagnosis of the plan reveals the need for updating the current freight matrix of the country,
optimizing them and rationalizing them, and making extensive use of rail and river patterns, with
the following objectives:

Increase in 15-20 years the share of rail transport from the current 25% to 32%, and river transport from 13% to
29%
Pipelines and air transport to grow 5% and 1% respectively
Road transport, currently with 58%, will participate with 33% in the Brazilian freight matrix, integrating it with the
multimodal transport system

In the previous cases, we can identify strategic, regulatory and institutional
aspects
Strategic aspects
• National policy is responsible for
developing a reliable supply chain,
resulting in improved delivery times,
(incorporating improvements in
management elements)
• Planning requires a global perspective in
the medium and long term
• The focus must be directed towards
advanced logistics, moving beyond
previous concepts of logistics distribution
and transport
• The planning and implementation of
policies must be based on cargo
services, taking into account the
