  2. "Gujarati only regional language in US census"۔ The Times of India۔ ستمبر 3, 2010۔ مورخہ 7 جنوری 2019 کو اصل سے آرکائیو شدہ۔ اخذ شدہ بتاریخ 4 فروری 2015۔ The famous Gujarati poet Ardeshir F Khabardar wrote, 'Jya vase ek Gujarati tyan sada kal Gujarat' (Where there is even one Gujarati, there is a Gujarat forever)..... Census data released earlier this year by the US vindicates the aphorism. The census reveals that the number of Gujarati-speaking people in the US is steadily rising, and the figure now stands at 287,367.

Raymond Brady Williams (2001)۔ An Introduction to Swaminarayan Hinduism۔ University Press, Cambridge۔ صفحہ 208۔ آئی ایس بی این 0-521-65279-0۔ مورخہ 7 جنوری 2019 کو اصل سے آرکائیو شدہ۔ اخذ شدہ بتاریخ 5 فروری 2015۔ Temple building is a sign of the growth in numbers and the increased prosperity of the Gujarati immigrants...The two decades between 1950 and 1969 were a heady period of success for the Gujaratis of East Africa... Michael Lyon observed that the Gujaratis acquired a new role in the colonial economics of East Africa, and ultimately a tragic one. They became a privileged racial estate under British protection. The Indian population in Kenya increased from 43,625 in 1931 to 176,613 in 1962... More than 80 percent were Gujaratis.

  6. Rita d'Ávila Cachado۔ "Samosas And Saris:Informal Economies In The Informal City Among Portuguese Hindu Families"۔ مورخہ 7 جنوری 2019 کو اصل سے آرکائیو شدہ۔ اخذ شدہ بتاریخ 4 فروری 2015۔ The Hindus in Great Lisbon have similarities with Hindus in the United Kingdom: they are mostly from a Gujarati background and migrated from ex-colonial countries. Yet the colonial system they came from was mostly Portuguese, both in India and in East Africa... Nevertheless, a realistic estimate is that there are about 30,000 Hindus in Portugal. That includes Hindu-Gujaratis, who migrated in the early 1980s, as well as Hindu migrants from all parts of India and Bangladesh, who migrated in the late 1990s.

Bharat Yagnik۔ "Oman was Gujaratis' first stop in their world sweep"۔ The Times of India۔ مورخہ 7 جنوری 2019 کو اصل سے آرکائیو شدہ۔ اخذ شدہ بتاریخ 5 فروری 2015۔ Oman's capital Muscat was the first home for Gujarati traders away from the subcontinent. The Bhatia community from Kutch was the first among all Gujaratis to settle overseas — relocating to Muscat as early as 1507! The Bhatias' settlement in the Gulf is emphasized by Hindu places of worship, seen there since the 16th century. As historian Makrand Mehta asserts, "Business and culture go together."
