| Summary | This study aims to evaluate the issues of operations derived from the structural changes of internal and external environments faced by container ports in Taiwan after port corporatization, and provide strategies for future development. Firstly, based on a review on terminal operations model, four major issues faced by Taiwan International Ports Corporation and its port branches were addressed and eighteen response strategies were subsequently developed. Regarding the response strategies, this study suggests that Taiwan International Ports Corporation and its port branches should provide training for staff in port operation management and global marketing, adjust the cost accounting systems and leasing rates of container terminal, and provide subsidy of leasing terminal. Moreover, the Keelung port should cooperate with Taipei port in terminal operation and the Taichung port should continually develop and strengthen the businesses of port logistics and free trade port zone. |
