A Study on the Efficiency Change of the Infrastructure Investment in Liaoning Coastal Economic Belt Based on Malmquist-DEA
These days, the strategy of Developing Liaoning Coastal Economic has become a state strategy, during which the infrastructure construction is playing an important role. Based on the Malmquist-DEA method, this paper calculates the efficiency change of infrastructure investment in 2000-2009, and evaluates the changing trend of these six cities. The following conclusions are drawn: Except Dalian, the efficiencies of infrastructure investment in the other five cities are decreasing, The main factor that has influence on the infrastructure investment efficiency in this region is technology development, The pure technology efficiency of infrastructure investment in Liaoning Coastal Economical Belt has showed a decreasing trend in 6 of the 10 years, which means that the capability of construction organization, operation management and policy formulation urgently needs to be improved.
