This research aimed to know the influence of accessibility and cargo transport regulations on the operational performance mediated by logistics effectiveness in the Class II Port of Jayapura, Papua Province. Several main problems in the object of this research were the existence of operational hour limitation regulation which made cargo delivery not maximally run, limited road network and roads in the port area, as well as the occurrence of congestion if cargo ships and passenger ships arrived at the port at the same time. This research used Structural Equation Modelling with Smart3PLS-SEM. The sampling technique used probability sampling and was conducted in the Port of Jayapura. The respondents were as many as 250 people consisting of shipping business players, transportation service providers, Harbormaster’s office, and the Port Authority. The result of the analysis and discussion indicated that logistics effectiveness was a reinforcing factor in the achievement of port operational performance. The existing obstacles could be overcome through road infrastructure improvement, traffic engineering, continuous policy improvement, and port facility and infrastructure improvement. The key finding was the necessity of an information technology system used for the ship's loading and unloading activities digitally to be utilized by the stakeholders, shipping companies, stevedoring companies, expedition companies, and cargo owners.

With the rapid development of international business activities and internationalization, export plays an important role in the existence and growth of businesses. Handicrafts, despite not being an essential product, have always been rated as a potential product for sustainable development and export. In Vietnam, a country with a lot of long-existing traditional handicraft villages, the export of handicrafts has always been considered as an advantageous activity that largely contributes to the economy as well as the society. According to statistics from the Vietnam Handicraft Exporter Association, every 1 million USD worth of handicraft export creates profit 5 to 10 times higher than that of the exploitation industry; as well as provides work for three to five thousand employees. Despite this fact, in the last few years the handicraft export in Vietnam has been modest and not fulfilled fully to its potential. In comparison with other export products, the export turnover of handicrafts still accounts for a low proportion. Recognizing this issue, the present study developed a model to analyze the effects of some certain factors to the handicraft export activity in Vietnam. The results of this paper will contribute to current literature as well as propose some solutions to promote the handicraft export in Vietnam.
