  1. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group Bangkok, Thailand February 20-24, 2012 Two AusAID-funded Projects – NLA Benefits & e-Port Linkages Economy: Australia

  2. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Australia undertaking projects in response to the APEC Supply Connectivity Framework Action Plan. • At this meeting, reporting on two self-funded projects • both pilot projects, focussing on selected economies, with outcomes for other economies • One: an on-going project and the other a concept note.

  3. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Project One: Benefits of National Logistics Associations in Selected APEC Economies • Project’s Objectives • To foster stronger collaboration between government and industry for better supply chain connectivity. • To enable developing economies to establish viable National Logistics Associations. • To share information on benefits, best practices and lessons learned.

  4. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Project One: Benefits of National Logistics Associations in Selected APEC Economies • Background • A pilot project funded by AusAID, Australia’s aid agency for economic and social development projects in particular economies • Participating economies: Indonesia; Papua New Guinea; Singapore; Thailand and Vietnam, with Australia as project coordinator

  5. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Project One: Benefits of National Logistics Associations in Selected APEC Economies • Rationale: in response to directives by APEC Leaders and Transportation Ministers • To improve the supply chain connectivity (SC) Framework - Chokepoint 1 [lack of coordination between government and industry on logistics supply chains] and • To also address Chokepoint 7 [variations of regulations across the border], relating to aligning of SC requirements between economies.

  6. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Methodology • Duration: 3 workshops from April 2011 – June 2012 • In April 2011, first workshop conducted in Melbourne with good outcomes for the second workshop in Bangkok next week [27 February 2012]. • The last workshop in Hanoi from 21-25 May 2012 to develop national logistics associations models for Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam.

  7. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Benefits • To promote the collaboration between government and industry relating to government policies and measures on transport supply chain connectivity • To improve transparency of the regulatory environment; and • To increase awareness among relevant government agencies and other stakeholders in selected APEC economies.

  8. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Deliverables • A generic National Logistics Association template and an implementation pathway to develop NLAs. • A compendium to contain findings, success stories, best practices, benefits, lessons learned, with a view to encouraging other APEC economies to consider for their own requirements

  9. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 Second Project: Electronic Linkages between Port Communities in Selected APEC Economies

  10. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Objectives: • To understand the supply-chain benefits of improved e-linkagesbetween APEC port community systems, application of single customs windows and cross-border paperlesstrading • In collaboration with Australia and China as well as APSN, to sharegood practices and benefits of e-linkages and to empower economies to have a better understanding of information infrastructure efficiencies as well as deficiencies.

  11. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Collaboration with other APEC Sub-fora: • In addition to the APSN, the Sub-Committee on Customs Procedures and the E-Commerce Group.

  12. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Selected Economies: • China, Indonesia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam, with Australia as coordinator • Shortly, Australia to make a formal approach to these economies.

  13. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Project Status [April 2012 – May 2013]: • Early stages: • Concept note for AusAID consideration in March 2012 • if approved, a full proposal in May for a workshop to be scheduled for Shanghai in October 2012 • if approved, a progress report to be made to TPT-WG36 in St Petersburg, Russia in August 2012.

  14. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Benefits: • For participating economies, information exchange through good practices, success stories and lessons learned • Information sharing on cost-effective e-linkages between ports for all participating economies • Capacity building at own pace and requirements • For APEC wide, to share project findings and a compendium relating to benefits, best practices, lessons learned.

  15. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Deliverables: • A compendium of best practices and benefits of electronic linkages. • Capacity building to developing economies [governments; port administrations and users] to develop or improve their own systems to meet their own needs and own pace; • Collaboration of partner economies on success stories and lessons learned.

  16. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Conclusion: • Both projects [on-going and under development]   • Response to Chokepoints 1 and 7 of the APEC Supply Chain Connectivity Framework  • Pilot projects for selected core economies for subsequent APEC wide application  • Implementation through workshops with hands-on by participating government and industry stakeholders  • Progress and outcomes to be sustained through our IIEG, in collaboration with other relevant APEC sub-forums

  17. 35th APEC Transportation Working Group, Bangkok, Thailand, February 20-24, 2012 • Recommendation that • The IIEG note progress of the on-going and possible new projects
