ew condition, in order to stay in competitive
state or at least maintain a presence, but this change may be
a nuisance for those whom affected, and it forces them to
face and respond it, due to personal or general reasons, so it
is necessary to know 'what is the change, its causes, method
of implementation, the objectives, how of the team respond to
it, and see if the construction projects has special or unique
features and if there is differences between them.
A questionnaire conducted to find out these facts and try to
infer the characteristics of public and private construction
projects and compare between them, and offer suggestions
and solutions for managers to learn how to deal with the

The study aimed at evaluating the success of Tartos Port Container Terminal investing by the private sector in promoting its operational and financial performance. The study analyzed the operational and financial indicators for the Container Terminal
before and after the entrance of the private sector. The period of the study started from 2004 until 2010 by considering 2007 an intermediate year. The study used the appropriate statistical methods such as t- test and Mann Whitney Test for comparing the performance of the terminal before and after the entrance of the private sector. The study found significant improvement of operational and liquidity indicators and significant decrease of leverage and profitability indicators, and some notable recommendations were the necessary of doing some reforms on the public sector companies which can increase the flexibility and the speed of the decisions making process, and the possibility of relying on privatization and public private partnership to fix some public sector enterprises that became unable to compete with the private sector.
This study addresses the nature of the role played by the private sector in the Syrian economy by monitoring the evolution of the size and quality of this role particularly in the foreign trade sector. The importance of that springs as a result of in
creasing reliance upon it as a development engine in developing countries when the transition to a market economy model with orientation to open up to the international economy and the liberalization of foreign trade, when the reliance is upon the dynamics of the private sector to play a main role in this period.
In the light of adopting the model of social economic market and the liberalization of Syrian foreign trade, the private sector has been given an increasing role in production and foreign trade activities. That was combined with the retrieve of public sector. The private sector in Syria had approved its dynamics and ability to meet the given role through increasing its activity in industrial production and its share in export especially in manufactured export.
This research aims to study the real aspects of the Syrian industrial sector through the
study of its contribution to the national economy. A Study regarding the size of the
industrial contribution to the national economy is presented in this paper
, as well as the
presenting of an analysis of the contribution of both the public and the private sectors
through four key indicators, these are:
- The first indicator : the contribution of the industrial sector to the formation of
Syrian domestic production.
- The second indicator : the contribution of the industrial sector to the formation of
Syrian GDP (Gross Domestic Product).
- The third indicator : the contribution of the industrial sector to the operation of the
labor force.
- The fourth indicator : the contribution of the industrial sector to the export.
And thus it provides a set of results that reflect both the reality of the industrial sector
and its contribution to the national economy. Moreover it provides a set of proposals that
could contribute toward overcoming the causes of the sector's low performance, so it can
achieve the desired objectives.
