10. Recommendations to enhance ship and port facility security under ISPS code in Quang Ninh port area INTRODUCTION Necessity In the modern era, maritime economic has been growing its important role in the human life. The very first benefit it brings about is transportation that is recognized as Silk Road on the sea, handling approximately 90 per cent of commercial merchandise of the international trade. This way of transportation guarantees cargo movement within a region or even from continent to continent. The relatively low cost, in comparison with other modes of product shipping, boost up the mass production, particularly outsourcing activity of numerous firms that allows a worldwide products distribution. Apart from economics, maritime development has many benefits in larger fields. The sea accounts for three-quarter of the global area on the Earth; therefore, taking control of the sea brings much greater power than land power does. This special territory not only provides a new economic space but also create a new trend of science, technology research in exploring and exploiting natural resources for fuel, materials, energy, food and living space in the near future. However, as a large area with low population density, the sea turns out to be a very vulnerable destination where various threats to individuals, organizations and even governments may occur. Once these threats happen, they are likely to cause severe damages in different aspects. This is the reason why offshore security has become as a widely concerned topic all over the world. As a nation with the coastline of over 3,000 km, Vietnam is also concern about the matter of maritime security. According to UNCLOS 1982, the sea area of Vietnam is up to 1 million km2 together with approximately 3,000 islands, 48 bays and more than 100 river entrances. In term of population, 29 cities and provinces are located nearby the sea with the population of over 20 million people. In addition, there are a wide range of economic activities are currently happening there such as port operation, fishery, tourism, salt production, and so on. Therefore, the sea has a strong connection to Vietnamese in various fields, which requires a thoughtful care for a comprehensive and secured development in a long run. Being connected to one of the most principal trade routes on the sea that passing Strait of Malacca, is an advantage but also a disadvantage to Vietnam. To the positive side, this route serves the majority of global shipment, hence, the volume of cargo are likely through Vietnam can be really high. According to CIEM – Vu Phuong Thao – GMA0301 Page 1
