How does control over teak forests in Java show the alliance of state and market?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The colonial state controlled teak forests and had them exploited to meet commercial demand for timber

In Java, the Dutch colonial state brought teak forests under its authority and managed them through a forest department and regulations. Teak was valuable for shipbuilding and other commercial uses, so state control served the market demand and profits linked to timber. Option B is incorrect because colonial rule strengthened forest laws rather than removing them. Exam tip: mention both state control of forests and commercial demand for teak.
