For what did Dutch rule want to keep Java forests?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Supply of teak timber

Dutch rule wanted to preserve Java’s forests mainly to ensure a steady supply of teak timber. Teak was strong and durable, making it especially valuable for shipbuilding. Forests were often cleared, rather than protected, for plantations and cultivation, so those options are incorrect. Exam tip: link Dutch forest control in Java with teak and shipbuilding.
