Download or read book Logistics Management and Its Legal Environment in China written by Felix Wai Hon Chan and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After almost 15 years of lobbying and negotiation, China has finally cleared all the hurdles to gain World Trade Organisation (WTO) membership, joining in November 2001. However, foreign investors in China are increasingly embroiled in disputes with Chinese companies due to logistics barriers. This article is a literature review which examines the idea that China's entry into the WTO and its legal reforms in response to globalisation will have a significant impact on the entire system of logistics management. The existing literature reveals very little systematic research in this area from the legal perspective. With continual legal reforms, there are tremendous opportunities to fundamentally improve logistics theory and practice. Within such a theme, this article critically investigates the constraints of logistics management in China in the context of its WTO entry, and puts forward ideas that may help to create a blueprint for China's future legal reforms.

Download or read book The Dynamics of the China Logistics Industry written by Xuepin Cen and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As required by the WTO accession, China is opening its logistics industry to international logistics companies. What are these companies' strategies in the China market, and how are Chinese domestic logistics companies responding? The author interviewed four executives in charge of China business from three major international logistics companies and one international logistics user, and surveyed the literature to track the investments and plans of international and Chinese logistics companies. The thesis analyzes the strategies of third-party logistics (3PL) providers in the China logistic industry, namely international companies, and Chinese state-owned and Chinese private companies. The research finds that network expansion is the main strategy for the international companies, and the tendency is to operate independently. Infrastructure and extensive network are the state-owned companies' main assets, and niche market expertise is the private companies' strategy to survive and compete in the China logistics industry. These three types of players will coexist in the short term in China, while in the long term, when the international logistics companies have set up their infrastructure and network, there will probably a new round of shuffling.
