摘要：Nowadays, transporting cargoes via container are key indicator for every shipment. The movement of container involves multi modes to reach destination. The efficient transport networking systems are determinant attribute towards container terminal in providing excellent services to their client. The paper focuses on the metamorphosis of the terminal efficiency and container movements at 6 major container terminals in Peninsular Malaysia. The aim is to measure efficiency of container terminals that contributes significant economic development for a nation. Non parametric approach under frontier method is used to analyse panel data from 2003 to 2010 in relation with container terminal equipments and throughput. The result shows no significant relationship between container terminal size and efficiency. Thus, efficiency is determined from allocation of resources efficiently by terminal operators and not by size of terminals. DOI: 10.12660/joscmv6n2p1-19 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.12660/joscmv6n2p1-19
