The most comprehensive and updated study of contemporary logistics in China ever published in the English language. --Dr Charles Guowen Wang, Chief Representative & Roundtable Chair, Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals, China

The Logistics Research Center in Nankai University is the most powerful logistics research base in China. From 1998, the Center has conducted research into issues concerning Chinese and international logistics. Alongside the economic development of China, many researchers are interested in issues within China's logistics industry and this report provides the systematic knowledge required for leadership in research on contemporary Chinese logistics. Although this report has not been published in Korea, many Korean researchers already read and refer to it. With improving economic relations between China and Korea, as well as an increasing importance of logistics relations between the two countries, this report would play an important role in the increase of bilateral cooperation. --Professor Sang Wook Kim, PaiChai University, Korea

In an accelerated and dramatic transformation, China has become the hub of the global supply chain, the critical center of world manufacturing and distribution.
