The important of Logistics..









People wondering around and say : "what actually logistics and what really they contribute to us?"Logistics is the one important function in business today. No marketing, manufacturing or project execution can succeed without logistics support. For companies, 10 per cent to 35 per cent of gross sales are logistics cost, depending on business, geography and weight/value ratio.Logistics is comparatively a new term, but not the operation. Logistics has existed since the beginning of civilization. 

Raw material and finished products had always to be moved, though on a small scale. Things began changing with the advance in transportation. Population began moving from rural to urban areas and to business centres. No longer did people live near production centres, nor did production take place near residence centres. The geographical distance between the production point and consumption point increased. And logistics gained importance.Another factor has come into play recently. 

Since the early 1990′s, the business scene has changed. The globalization, the free market and the competition has required that the customer gets the right material, at the right time, at the right point and in the right condition… at the lowest cost.

The fact is, logistics very important and they do contribute a lot in our country as well as whole world....
logistics may be one of the largest business ever in world history....
Examples in Malaysia...Logistics contribute to economic growth....
Its ;
a) increase land value 
b) increase population
c) increase networking: road to other country as well as in the country itself
d) work opportunity(decrease unemployed) 
e) increase the communication or connection to other country....
f) increase the competition between domestics and international.
g) contribute in  economic by taxes
h) make country same as other move forward country
i) make life in easy ways.....and so on.....

see...many benefit that we could gain when we or our country involve  in logistics right...
but then, we must remember, involving in logistics are not easy as we thought....
there are risk that we have to bear or take....one of the risk is security and safety as well as miss use power like corruption, bureaucracy....but,
not to be afraid with logistics....
life is fun...take the risk and we will know how to mange it in our style.....
