Social cohesion holds significant importance within immigrant communities, providing them with a sense of belonging to a group of people who share many similarities while they are adapting to an unfamiliar environment. This article explores social cohesion in the Indian community in Vietnam through the primary method of surveying and in-depth interviews. The authors believe that the Indian community in Vietnam currently is not closely connected, but that its members show a certain dependence on and trust in the members of the community. Regarding cohesion methods, the article explores the main methods of engagement, such as participation in community activities, in the activities of representative organisations, and in interactive groups on social media. In all three ways it is undeniable that Indians living in Vietnam have made efforts to stick together and unite, but the results have not really been what they wanted.

越南印度社区的社会凝聚力

社会凝聚力在移民社区中具有重要意义，使他们在适应陌生的环境时对一群有许多相似之处的人产生归属感。本文通过调查和深度访谈的主要方法探讨了越南印度社区的社会凝聚力。作者认为，目前越南的印裔社区联系并不紧密，但其成员对社区成员表现出一定的依赖和信任。关于凝聚方式，文章探讨了参与的主要方式，如参与社区活动、参与代表组织活动、参与社交媒体互动小组等。从这三个方面来看，不可否认的是，生活在越南的印度人为团结一致做出了努力，但结果并不是他们真正想要的。
