Abstract
In these days, national logistics costs have been used as performance indicators. But it is not suitable as performance indicators because the better efficiency of logistics reduces its cost and the more logistics added value increases national logistics cost. This conflict makes national logistic costs cannot work well as performance indicators of logistics. This study was conducted to develop performance indicators which show achievement of national logistics policy quantitatively. To achieve this, strengths and weaknesses of existing performance indicators of logistics policy are analyzed, several alternatives are proposed and final alternative is obtained. Performance indicators of logistics policy that is finally proposed in this study is combined with 'Ratio of logistics added value to GDP' and 'Ratio of net National Logistics Costs to GDP' to achieve two goals, decrease in logistics costs and vitalizations of logistics and industries.
