What is the strongest reason for calling the Samin movement moral resistance?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It asked how one who did not create the forest could own it

The Samin movement challenged the moral legitimacy of the Dutch colonial state’s claim to own forests. Its central argument was that a person who had not created the forest could not justly claim ownership over it. Thus, the resistance was about the ethical basis of property and authority, not merely taxes or trade. The other options do not reflect the movement’s ideas. Exam tip: link the Samins with forest rights and their moral challenge to state ownership.
