The book is the outcome of a ten-year project undertaken by the editors at the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, Singapore. It is multi-disciplinary in focus and multi-faceted in approach, providing a comprehensive account of the way people originating from the Indian subcontinent have integrated themselves in the various Southeast Asian countires. The study provides insights into understanding how Indians, an intra-ethnically diverse immigrant group, have intermingled in Southeast Asia, a region that itself is ethnically diverse UR - https://doi.org/10.1355/9789812305732 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789812305732 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789812305732/original ER -
