Abstract

A case study is conducted on the community network of Indian females in Shaoxing of Zhejiang province, which wins fame as "the City of Light t& Textile Industry of China". This paper argues that Indian females in the city of light & textile industry are influenced by middlemen's point-to-point cross country network, trade activities' stressing on secrets, kinship's business value in intermediate trade, and China's visa system, so that they cannot form a women mutual-assistance network on a relative large scale in China and would then be isolated and marginalized. From what's been mentioned above, religious network will not necessarily have connection with business superiorities. The nature of middlemen's trade activities, i.e. the capital in middlemen's business, will influence their whole family's local social network combination and will further diminish non-business family members' attendance at public religious activities and social group lives.
