Why did the Dutch strengthen control over teak in Java?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Teak’s durable timber was valuable for shipbuilding and trade

The Dutch tightened their control over teak forests because teak is strong, durable and suitable for use in ships. It was therefore highly important for shipbuilding and colonial trade. Teak timber was not mainly required for growing coffee, so option B is not the correct reason. Exam tip: link Dutch rule in Java with teak forests, shipbuilding and colonial trade.
