This basic industry is capital-intensive, technology-intensive, labour-intensive, and information-intensive.
The role of waterway transport in the development of the national economy is a ribbon, which is linked to the world through transport across the sea and rivers.
Today, as human history is moving towards the 21st century, waterway transport, which is more convenient and cheaper than air transport, is still the main way to link the global economy and trade, undertaking global and inter-regional transport of goods and becoming the main transport link for global integration and regionalization of the world economy.
