Promoting an Effective and Efficient Logistics Process

The logistics sector underpins people’s productive activities. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it is the heart of the national economy.

The reason lies in smooth distribution—the backbone of logistics—which fuels production and consumption at home and abroad.

Efficient and effective logistics is key to the sector’s contribution to economic growth. The more efficient the logistics is, the greater its impact on accelerating the economy. On the other hand, poorly managed logistics can stall progress.
