隨著全球經濟發展，國際運籌港區所扮演的角色由一國的商品進出口門戶演變成轉運港(Transshipment ports)，成為產業供應鏈中的重要節點。為了探討國際運籌港區之發展模式，本研究以結構方程式(SEM)系統化地去探討國際運籌港區發展之構面因素及各構面政策推動之效果關係。研究結果顯示，「港區立地條件與基礎建設」構面對於「成本與作業效能」構面的影響無顯著統計支持，而透過「港區交通之連結性」作為中介變數，兩者才會產生顯著統計支持。另一方面，則是去探討台灣與香港在構面政策推動上之間的效果差異。研究結果顯示，相較於香港地區，台灣地區在「港區立地條件與基礎建設」構面對於「港區交通之連結性」構面及「政府政策」構面對於「港區經營」構面之政策效果較為顯著。在研究討論的部分，則是以國際運籌港區之發展模式比較了Notteboom and Rodrigue(2005)提出之港口區域化理論(Port Regionalization)與O’Connor(2009)之全球都會區(The Global City Region)，另外再以Oum and Park(2004)針對跨國企業配銷中心區位選擇國家之數據，合併中國、香港、日本、韓國、台灣進行比較。最後，本文針對研究結果進行討論與政策意涵說明。With the global economic development, International logistic zone (ILZ) has transformed from a country portal to Transshipment ports which is an industrial supply chain and critical node. In order to discuss the development about the ILZ, the study uses the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analysis the dimensions and the effect of those dimensions. According to the study, there is no significant support in “The dimension of location and basic infrastructure” to” The dimension of cost and effectiveness”. The major effect comes from the mediator “The dimension of connectivity of traffic”. In addition, the study compares Taiwan and Hong Kong in the differences of the development of the ILZ. According to this study, the effect of Taiwan is more than Hong Kong in” The dimension of location and basic infrastructure” to “The dimension of connectivity of traffic” and ”The dimension of government” to “The dimension of port operating”. In the discussion of ILZ, the study compares Port Regionalization(Notteboom and Rodrigue,2005),The Global City Region(O’Connor,2009) ,Multinational firms’ location preference for regional distribution centers(Oum and Park,2004) and combines the data of China , Hong Kong , Japan , Korea , Taiwan to analysis. Finally, the study comes up with some recommendations and discussion.
