If this facility became a cluster, it would operate more effectively. This study aims to provide a different area in Indonesia where a prospective SRF cluster could grow. This research uses Diamond Porter’s method to determine a country’s comparative economic advantage towards the SRF cluster in Alang City, Gujarat, India, which is the global leader in ship recycling. The factor conditions; related and supporting industries; demand conditions; and firm strategy, structure, and rivalry are all examined in this study. To accommodate ship owners, the SRF business, and the government in carrying out ship recycling, the results of this study are a reference for formulating specific regulations for the SRF cluster.
