Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Argues that long dwell time in Sub-Saharan African (SSA) ports is not exclusively the responsibility of customs as usually believed. The private sector (terminal operator, customs broker, owner of container depots, and even importers) has little interest in reducing time spent in ports. The solution to decreasing dwell time ports relies mainly on the challenging task of breaking the private sector's collusion and equilibrium between public authorities, logistics operators, and some importers.
