The Yellow Sea region is becoming an engine of economic growth for Northeast Asia. Its growth and prosperity will depend upon how well it is able to focus on improving the efficiencies of its intermodal transportation system, infrastructure, its connection to other economies and how the system relates to logistics and supply-chain management. The region is moving towards becoming a major world economic hub and the Yellow Sea needs an innovative transportation system to be developed to support the activity that seems destined to take place. This article looks at innovative technologies that might be introduced to develop a more competitive coastal shipping system in the region. Innovations in logistics and container shipping are discussed that could greatly facilitate Incheon’s situation with respect to the broader region.
