impact of the development of Makassar new port (MNP) in supporting sea tolls

Abstract

The sea toll is a marine logistics transportation concept initiated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo. This program connects important ports on five Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Papua, and Java. President Jokowi and Vice President Jusuf Kalla made the sea toll project a flagship project to improve inter-island connectivity in Indonesia. The sea highway is a route for large ships that connects important ports in Indonesia, Makassar City. One of Makassar City's developments towards international trade is the Makassar New Port (MNP) as an east and west transportation connectivity. The research area was carried out in Makassar City, with the object of research being the Makassar New Port, which is one part of the marine highway program. It chose the location of this study because it is easy for researchers to obtain research data, both primary and secondary data, for distributing questionnaires and observing other sources based on the literature. The results obtained from this study are that there is no significant influence, both positive and negative.
