Why did the Dutch control forest resources and labour together in Java?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because teak felling and transport needed labour along with resources

Java’s teak forests were important to the Dutch for shipbuilding and other colonial needs. Controlling trees alone was not enough: labour was also needed to fell teak, move logs, and transport timber. Therefore, option A is correct. Growing only cotton was not the purpose of forest control. Exam tip: link control over forest resources with control over labour in answers on colonial forestry.
