- ABSTRACT
The Kangean Islands are part of the administrative region of Sumenep Regency, Madura, home to diverse ethnic groups. These islands serve as a transit area for traders and fishermen from various regions, eventually leading to population migration from different areas to the Kangean Islands. One of these migrating communities is the Sulawesi community, which has been migrating for several decades. This research explores the social cohesion of the Sulawesi community in the Kangean Islands, particularly in the largest sub-district of Arjasa. This research utilizes a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Data collection is conducted through in-depth interviews with members of the Sulawesi community in the Arjasa sub-district. The Sulawesi community demonstrates relatively good social cohesion within the Kangean Island society. This is evident in the shared values and norms that are strongly upheld, the acceptance and recognition of their identity and membership as part of the Kangean community, positive social interactions among the people, and the presence of shared goals.
