Abstract:

Logistics are considered the backbone of an economy. If this system is interrupted by an external shock, the economy will be affected severely. Such as Covid pandemic occurred in 2019, the logistics activities were blocked, and the economy was downed turn. Therefore, an economy needs to build a good logistics system to develop sustainably. This paper finds out that a country's development level affects the logistics system, as the way higher the income level, the more logistics activities. Especially when a shock occurs, the less income, the more severe the effect on the logistics system.

Keywords:

Air freight, COVID-19, Logistics activities, Income level.
