History Of The Jews In Vietnam
Jews are a minor ethnic and religious group in Vietnam, presently consisting of only about 300 people, or an extremely small percentage of Vietnam's population. Although Jews have been present in Vietnam and Judaism has been practiced since the 19th century, most adherents have been, and remain today, expatriates, with few to no native Vietnamese converts.
