El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

1. Rajeev Chandrasekhar’s connect with Bengaluru goes beyond just representing
Bengaluru Urban in the Rajya Sabha. The city is home to him for almost three decades.
Over the past years, he has advocated and been vocal about the problems faced by
citizens of the city.
Rajeev firmly believes a progressive vision for Bengaluru must stem from statutory
multi-year development plans that draw participation of citizens in decisions that will
affect them. A strong votary for Governance Reforms through the planned development
of Bengaluru, Rajeev has fought for increased citizen participation in the development
plans of the city.
Seeking active involvement of Bengalureans to reclaim the city, the Big Bengaluru Fight
addresses the core problems – failure of Government, takeover of planning and
development by vested interests, the decline of neighbourhoods and the need to a push
for reforms in the administration of civic agencies and the Government – from exploiting
the city to serving the city’s citizens.
Through multiple initiatives under the Big Bengaluru Fight, Rajeev empowers and
collaborates with the citizens of Bengaluru in a movement to eradicate corruption, bring
in accountability and usher in transparency in the functioning of the Government. This
involves fighting corruption and holding Government agencies accountable through
Public Interest Litigation and Judicial interventions.
Big Bengaluru Fight continues to be a strong initiative aimed at eradicating corruption
and making accountable the people, under whom this corruption flourishes.
