ECONOMY
South Korea over the past
four decades has demonstrated
incredible growth and global
integration to become a hightech industrialized economy.
GDP per capita was comparable
with the levels in the poorer
countries of Africa and Asia
GDP (Purchasing power
parity)
$1.666 trillion (13th)
GDP (real growth rate) :
2.80%
GDP (per capita-PPP) :
$33,200 (42nd)
The
economy
has
weathered
global
economic and financial
downturns better than its
regional peers due to
minimal
exposure
to
troubled
international
securities,
low
dependence on exports,
relatively
resilient
domestic
consumption,
large remittances from
overseas
Filipino
workers,
and
rapidly
expanding

industry.
GDP (Purchasing power
parity) : $454.30 billion
The
country
is
richly endowed with
natural resources, but
exploitation has been
hampered by rugged
terrain, land tenure
issues, and high cost
of
developing
infrastructures.
Mineral
deposits,
including copper, gold,
and oil account to
nearly 2/3 of export
earnings.

Economic Importance of Transport
Infrastructures
The transport sector is an important
component of the economy and a
common tool used for development. This
is even more so in a global economy
where
economic
opportunities
are
increasingly related to the mobility of
people, goods and information.
Economic Importance of Transport
Infrastructures
When transport systems are efficient, they
provideeconomic and social opportunities
and benefitsthat result in positive multipliers
effects such as better accessibility to markets,
employment and additional investments. When
transport systems are deficient in terms of
capacity or reliability, they can have an
economic cost such asreduced or missed
Economic Importance of Transport
Infrastructures
Assessing the economic importance of transportation requires
acategorizationof the types of impacts it conveys. These
involve:
Core. This involves the setting of routes enabling new or
existing interactions between economic entities.
Operational. Improvement in the time performance, notably
in terms of reliability, as well as reduced loss or damage.
Geographical. Access to a wider market base where
economies of scale in production, distribution and
consumption
can
be

Economic Importance of Transport
Infrastructures
At themacroeconomic level(the importance of transportation for a
whole economy), transportation and the mobility it confers are linked to a
level of output,employmentand income within a national economy. In
many developed countries, transportation accounts between 6% and 12%
of the GDP.
At themicroeconomic level(the importance of transportation for specific
parts of the economy) transportation is linked to producer, consumer and
production costs. The importance of specific transport activities and
infrastructure can thus be assessed for eachsector of the economy.
Transportation
accounts
on
average
between
10% and 15% of household expenditureswhile it accounts around 4% of
the costs of each unit of output in manufacturing, but this figure varies
greatly according to sub sectors.

improved capacity and efficiency where
transport provides employment, added
value, larger markets as well as time and
costs improvements.
Economic Importance of Transport

Indirect
[Link] outcome of improved
accessibility and economies of scale. Indirect valueadded and jobs are the result of local purchases by
companies directly dependent upon transport activity.
Transport activities are responsible for a wide range
of indirect value-added and employment effects,
through the linkages of transport with other
economic sectors (e.g. office supply firms, equipment
and parts suppliers, maintenance and repair services,
insurance companies, consulting and other business
Economic Importance of Transport

Induced [Link] outcome of the economic
multiplier effects where the price of commodities,
goods or services drop and/or their variety increases.
For instance, the steel industry requires cost efficient
import of iron ore and coal for the blast furnaces and
export activities for finished products such as steel
booms and coils. Manufacturers and retail outlets and
distribution centers handling imported containerized
cargo rely on efficient transport and seaport
operations.
Economic Importance of Transport
Infrastructures
The major impacts of transport on economic factors
can be categorized as follows:
Geographic specialization
Large scale production
Increased competition.
Increased land value.
