Should containerization be in- troduced in Hong Kong? Discuss

its effects on the local import and: export trade.

Ans:- Hong Kong has entered into: ca new era of containerization last

year. Containerization is a new system of handling cargo. Tradit ionally, small parcels of cargc care handled in mid-harbour, Whern a cargo-ship arrives. at the port it will anchor at mid-harboura: Small vessels will unload the goods from the cargo ship and the wcargo'is then transported ashore.

This way of handling cargo is: time-consuming and costly. It cannot meet the heavy demand for containerized caIKO.

In view of this, the Goveriment established a container committee in 1.966 to study and examine the possibility of introducing contain -erization for the Colony. The hy Committee also" recommended waya by which our port can be modermiz- ed to meet the challenge of the, era of containerization. After examining the facts, the Committee. submitted a report to the Govern- ment. The report suggested that Hong Kong must follow the examples of other major advanced countries of adopting containerization.The. first container terminal began operation last year. Kwai Chung was chosen as the most favourate site for containerization. The OCL Overseas Containers Ltd.) 19. providing its service now. The first container ship visiting the Colony was the "Tokyo Bay". This marks the new era in our import and export trade.

Containerization has been in- troduced in America, Europe and some Asian Countries such as Japan and Singapore. This cargo-handling Aystem. has, several distinct advant- ages. Firstly, it will speed up The Toading and unloading time.

Much time and energy will be saved because the cargo is contained in: a standardised container. Accurate information concerning the weight and number of cargo can be obtain- ed!! easily. Secondly, it gaves: space, Therefore, the costs of handling cargo is much cheaper than the traditional system of cargo-handling. Thirdly, it ensures that cargo is less likely to be. damaged. This is obvious for all cargos are contained inside a metal container which can protect the cargo much better.

Since most cargo ships had been fully converted to container ships. Hong Kong will lose most of its trade unless it provides facilities. to the container ships for loading

and unloading purposes. If the Colony does not provide necessary facilities, container ships will by-pass Hong Kong and visit some- where else. They may visit

t Japan and Singapore. It is not surprisin that Hong Kong will suffer a lot in lieu of this. Competition is so keen that the Colony must follow puit if it wants to preserve its Competitiveness in the world trade

As Commerce flourishes, import and export trade is bound to expand In order to cope with world deve- Lopments, containerization must

be introduced. This has signifi- rcant effects on the local import rand export trade as mentioned.

2. What is meant by money?:

What functions does money Fulfil in the present economy?

Ans:** Moderm economies are charTM acterized by the high degree of. :epecialization, Examples are

specialization of persons of

business firms, of regions. It is true that without this high degree of specialization our productive power and standards of living would be far below their present levels. It is equally true that specialization would be impossible

without a highly developed system of exchange. Money, therefore, 19 "productive for it facilitates

specialization and production,

Economists agree that all those things that are generally accept able in payment of debt and for goods and services are regarded as money. Based on this definition, money supply includes coins, paper. money, and demand deposits at

barika money has to fulfill severan. functions, each of which obviates one of the difficulties of pure barter exchange.

The functions are : (1) it perves as a unit of value, (2) it is used as a medium of exchange,

(3) it is a standard of deferred. payments, (4) it is a store of value. The first two functions. are usually called the primary functions of money. The last two functions are known as derivative: functions because they are derived: from the first two primary funct- .1.0ms

In order to riderstand the functions performed by money in the present economy, it is appro- priate to look at the defects of barter economy and see how each defect is made good. The firat serious shortcoming of barter

economy is the lack of any common unit in terms of which to measure and state the values of goods and services. Money can remove this. defect by serving as a unit of value in terms of which the

"value" of all goods and services is measured and expressed, Of course, to be a satisfactory measure of value, the monetary Bunit itself must maintain a relat~

ively stable value.

The second shorteoming of pure barter is "the lack of a double deineidence wants. In the barter economy, business transaction can take place only when the two persons are willing to exchange their goods. It may happen that one person wants to exchange while another individual may not need the commodity and therefore he refuses to exchange, In this case, no trade takes place. Money again helps to remove this defect. The. cowmer of a good or service need

not secure his aupplies from the people to whom he trades his goods. or service, he can use his money to buy the things he wants most.

A. third disadvantage of pure barter. is the lack of any satis- factory unit in terms of which to write contracts requiring future payments. Contracts involving. Future payments are an essential part of an exchange economy. In barter economy, these future pay- ments would become' difficult for. three "reasons: (1)it would invit妵 dispute as to the quality of the goods or services to be repaid, (2) the two parties would often

be unable to agree on the specific. commodity to be used for repayment (3) both parties would run the "risk that the commodity to be

repaid would increase or decrease Beriously in value over the durati ion of the contract. Money serves. as a standard of deferred payments satisfactorily only to the extent that it maintains a constant pure chasing power through time. Money becomes the unit in terms of which deferred or future payments are stated.

A fourth disadvantage or pure parter is the lack of any method of storing generlaized purchasing power. People could store purchas- ing power for future use only by

holding specific commodities. The

stored commodity may deteriorate
