ABSTRACT

This interim report presents the main issues researched in the IAMU funded project. The primary objective of this study is to identify and analyse all shorebased and near shore activities which are associated with maritime operations and to formulate them into a Maritime Security Management System. A curriculum development for maritime security studies will also be analysed and proposed as part of the project. The study involves two main stages. A focus group survey is conducted first to explore ideas and perception of expert in the field on different facets of research objectives. Based on the findings of this survey, a postal survey will be conducted to empirically examine the perception of the international shipping community on research objectives.
