DUTCH RULE FROM BATAVIA1815 TO 1900

(continued to page 2)

Peter Fanning, Vice President IABC

We have seen in an earlier story that the UnitedEast India Company (the VOC, and the world’sfirst limited liability company) collapsed inbankruptcy in 1796. It had been established underthe rule of the Republic of the Seven UnitedNetherlands, which was governed through theStates-General (having won independence fromSpain). It was intended to rationalise the cut-throat rivalry between competing Dutch traders,and the united traders were given a charter touse the name of the Dutch government.

With the support of French revolutionaries, theDutch Republic became the Batavian Republic,as part of the French Empire, on 19 January1795. This state had a hard look at the books ofthe VOC, and declared it bankrupt and assumedits assets on 1 March 1796, and its charterformally expired on 31 December 1799. (It hadpaid dividends from loans through much of itslife). Its trading empire in the East Indies nowbecame known as the Dutch East Indies. (Soonafter, the Batavian Republic became the Kingdomof Holland, then the United Kingdom of theNetherlands, then, as currently, the Kingdom ofthe Netherlands).

The Company had worked through a successionof thirty-two Governors-General over its 194-year life span.

Because of its unhealthy climate, the Dutch elitelived outside the walled city of Batavia after 1800.The administration was also moved severalkilometres south, to Weltevreden estate, by theextremely energetic Governor-General Daendelswho pulled apart the old castle and city walls.Here at Weltevreden a new civil service wascreated to govern the colony from buildings partlybuilt from the materials gained from the castleand old city walls. (A pity – I love old castles).

The capital of the Dutch East Indies remained tobe Batavia.

In 1796 the first (Batavian) Republic-appointedGovernor-General, Pieter Gerardus vanOverstraten, took up office in the city with thesame name as his home country, in the imposingformer company headquarters looking towardsthe port over what is now called FatahillahSquare. (That headquarters is now the JakartaHistory Museum).

He would be followed by four Governors-General before the British landing on 4 August1811, and subsequently by two BritishLieutenant-Governors. These were lieutenants,as British regional headquarters remained inCalcutta.

Following the ignominious departure of the Britishin August 1816, the second of the BritishLieutenant-Governors, John Fendall, wasreplaced by Governor-General Baron Godert vander Capellan, the first appointment the newKingdom of Holland.

Baron van der Capellan

Van der Capellan was a reformer way ahead ofhis time. He was opposed to further privateEuropean development of coffee plantations,which were indeed in competition withgovernment plantations, so his motives were notentirely altruistic. But his principal concernappears to have been the ordinary people. Locallandlords were renting large areas of land toEuropeans on long-term leases, giving theoccupiers full rights to the land (as is done inparts of Indonesia today). But the large-scaleleasing reduced local landholders to merelabourers producing coffee and indigo insteadof rice.

Van der Capellan decreed all such land contractswere null and void as from 1 January 1824, andthat the Javanese landlords had to pay back therents already paid to them in advance. They hadspent the money of course, and so pressuredfarmers/labourers even harder for produce tohelp them pay back the rents, a consequence ofcourse not intended by the Governor-General.This hit hard especially in the Yogya area.

Van der Capellan undertook public works beyondhis means, and had to finance actions against anumber of regional outbreaks of unrest (inMaluku, Sulawesi, Palembang, West Sumatra).

Dutch Rule...

He also tried to persuade the Dutch government to cease the artificialsupport for a spice monopoly (achieved by having farmers destroyproductive trees).

Van der Capellan was dismissed from his post as an economic failure.

Pangeran Aria Diponegoro

It would appear that the well-meaning van der Capellanmanaged to upset everyone,even the villagers he was tryingto help, and one who took it uponhimself to exact revenge was thereclusive and self-proclaimedsultan Diponegoro, sparking aprolonged war on the Dutch.

You will recall that Diponegorowas in the Yogya Kraton withhis father the Crown Princewhen it was sacked by Raffles’troops on 20 June 1812. He wassaved from possible harmbecause his father had done adeal with the English to beinstalled as Sultan, and so wasrescued with his father from

further danger by the British troops (or, actually UK troops, as they wereby then). And his father was duly installed as Hamengkubuwono III.

But the rather strange Pangeran Ari Diponegoro had not grown up in thepalace. At age seven, he had been packed off to live with his widowedgreat-great grandmother, Ratu Ageng, at Tegalreja, away to the northwestin the direction of Cirebon. She was no ordinary woman, having in her dayheaded the sultan’s corps of formidable amazonian guards. He was broughtup a strict royal, but at the same time developed significant contacts amongboth the mystics and the young jago misfits in the countryside.

Not being the son of a designated queen, although he was his father’s firstson, Dipo himself was passed over when his father died in 1814, and ayounger brother was installed as sultan. It appears that Raffles (or at leastthe switched-on John Crawfurd) may have seen trouble brewing, andRaffles promised Dipo that he would be appointed if his brother passedaway. But when his brother (as Hamengkubuwono IV) did pass away in1822, Raffles was not around to follow up, and apparently the Dutchknew nothing of the promise. They installed his brother’s one year-old sonas sultan (Hamengkubuwono V), and Dipo was well on the way to beingpissed off.

The strictly brought up Dipo, back at the palace since about age 18, did notlike the way either the English or the Dutch or the Javanese aristocracy behaved.

But unrest in the Yogya area was about to boil over. Disenfranchisedfarmers being forced to help landlords pay back rents received werefurther hurt by tolls exacted by Chinese officials appointed for the purposeto levy tolls as produce moved around the countryside. All crops failed in1821, a cholera pandemic hit the Archipelago at the end of that year, andin 1822 Merapi blew up.

The people were hoping for the legendary Ratu Adil, the RighteousPrince created by East Java’s King Joyoboyo in the mid 12th century, tomake an appearance. Right on cue, the Ratu Adil appeared to Dipo in avision while he was meditating in a cave near his home in 1824. Dipo hadby now given up on the rotten palace, and was living back at Tegalraja.The message was simple – Java must be conquered.

He did not exactly spring to arms. It was during July in the following yearthat workmen sent by the Dutch resident to repair a road near his Tegalrajaland clashed with Dipo’s retainers. Soldiers were sent to arrest Dipo,and set fire to Tegalraja. This set Dipo off, and the war was on. Although

there is not enough detail to know why it was necessary to attack Dipoas the Dutch soldiers did. It all sounds too simple.

He took Yogya by surprise at the head of an avenging force. (Onesuspects that today he would have charged in in a dusty Ford pick-upwith black flag snapping in the slipstream). After the initial very savageattack during which there was considerable bloodshed, the Dutch werebetter prepared in Yogya, but they had no control over the countryside,at least in the short term.

Half the court’s princes and almost half the senior court officials wentover to his side. They were well and truly offside with the well-meaningvan der Capellan for wrecking their land-lease system. Dipo already hadthe rural santri (pesantren leaders) and rural criminal jago on his side –a regular “unholy alliance”.

He himself had refused to lease any of the Tegalreja land he had inheritedfrom his amazonian great-great grandmother. So it appears he did nothave a personal stake in that part of the dispute. Apparently he startedout principally to show the Yogya court a thing or two. He also spoke ofan Islamic state. And he swung between wanting all foreigners out ofJava, to simply wanting them to return to trading and get off the land.

After the first brutal attack, there were no more pitched battles, and theparties settled in to five years of guerilla warfare. Dipo retained theupper hand for perhaps 3 years. The Dutch even tried to appease himand the people by returning his father Hamengkubuwono III from exile tothe throne, but it appears he was no help.

The cost and suffering on all sides was considerable – the Java Warcost the lives of 15,000 Dutch soldiers and 200,000 Javanese (the numbersdepending on the account you read). But Dipo was losing ground andsupport – perhaps reflecting on his confused objectives. And the ordinarypeople had clearly had enough. His principal side-kicks deserted to theDutch in 1829. And he was not well.

At the end of Ramadhan in 1830 he offered to negotiate with LieutenantGovernor/General Hendrik Merkus de Kock and came in for a meeting on28 March 1830, but it appears he was not willing to give up any of hisclaims (to being the caliph and protector of Islam in all of Java). The Dutchruled through contracts with sultans, and Dipo was clearly going tocause conflict with sultans the length of Java. So General de Kockdecided that he had had ‘enough of the bullshit’ (perhaps not his exactwords) and arrested him, and packed him off to exile, first in Manado,and then in the mighty Fort Rotterdam in Makassar. It appears that no onetried to retrieve him, and he died there 25 years later in 1855, apparentlya loner to the end.

As far as the Dutch were concerned, they now had a unified Dutch EastIndies to develop and defend. The war had gelled their thinking and resolve.

The New VOC

With the liberal van der Capellan out of the way, the Dutch tried to recreatethe glory of the VOC (after the unproductive years of French domination)in the form of the Netherlands Trading Society (Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij or NHM) in 1824, to counter British and American tradinginfluence. For the next 140 years the NHM developed a large internationalbranch network and increasingly engaged in banking operations.

It lost a number of its bank branches when the Indonesian governmentnationalised them in 1960 to form a new locally-owned bank, but by thenit had branches in many other parts of the world and was still developing.(It went on to became one of the primary ancestors of ABN AMRO bankwhen in 1964 it merged with the Dutch De Twentsche Bank to formAlgemene Bank Nederland [ABN], which would later merge with theAmsterdamsche Rotterdamsche Bank. The mighty building created forthe NHM now houses the Amsterdam Archives.)

Van der Capellen’s prohibition on private land-lease contracts was cancelled.

The Cultivation System

In 1829 King Williamappointed Johannes vanden Bosch as Governor-General, to implement a“Culture (or, Cultivation)System”, which van denBosch had ‘sold’ to theDutch government. Thisrequired farmers to setaside a part of their land forexport crops. The producewould take the place of cashland-rent. Agreementswould be put in place,containing checks andbalances. He began withindigo and sugar, and movedon to coffee, tea, tobacco,pepper, cinnamon, cotton,and cochineal.

But the scheme was too successful for its own good and Holland’sneeds were huge, so opportunism took hold and the checks and balancesand safeguards were abandoned. Even cash rent began to be collectedagain in addition. Huge profits were made.

In some years, as much as a quarter of Holland’s income came from thecolony. Local rulers also benefited from the cultivation system. Theyreceived bonuses if their farmers increased production. For the ordinaryJavanese, the cultivation system was an additional financial burden, andmoreover it led to corruption and exploitation. Despite protests against itsharmful effects, the system remained in place until 1870.

But the golden goose of a rich agricultural heritage had been killed - theresult for Java (with locally useless cash crops replacing food crops)was a severe famine in 1848-50 and the population decreased by awhopping one third. The outer islands can be thankful they were stillbeing ignored at this time.

But parliamentary democracy was introduced to Holland in 1848 andchange was in the air for the Dutch East Indies. The rule of law was tobe introduced to the colonies.

Aceh War 1873-1914

For many years, the colonial administration focused purely on Java. Itwas thought that the other islands of the archipelago, the outer provinces,were unprofitable, so they were left undisturbed. But in the late 19thcentury, the Dutch changed tack. With the opening of the Suez Canal,more ships had started to use the Malacca Strait, and these had fallenprey to pirates who operated from the nearby sultanate of Aceh onSumatra and threatened to make use of the route impossible. Moreover,in 1871, the Netherlands had acquired official sovereignty over Aceh. Toenforce its authority and protect shipping, the Dutch sent troops to takeover the palace of the sultan of Aceh. It was to be a symbolic act, but aguerrilla war erupted which seemed impossible to suppress. Led by J.B.van Heutsz, a Dutch army eventually managed to break the resistance.Dutch troops treated the indigenous population with particular severity.

Ethical Politics

With the subjection of the outlying islands, such as Sumatra, Dutchauthority now extended to all corners of the East Indies archipelago, andthe Dutch East Indies was more or less united. The word “Indonesia” hadeven commenced to be used occasionally by some (actually from asearly as 1880). But the big loser was the indigenous population.

In 1899, the liberal Dutch lawyer Conrad Theodor van Deventer publishedan essay which claimed that the colonial government had a moralresponsibility to return the wealth that the Dutch had received from theEast Indies to the indigenous population.

Journalist Pieter Brooshooft (1845-1921) wrote about the moral duty ofthe Dutch to provide more for the peoples of the Indies. With the supportof socialists and concerned middle class Dutch, he campaigned againstwhat he saw as the unjustness of the colonial surplus. He described theIndies indigenous peoples as “childlike” and in need of assistance, notoppression. Brooshooft sent reporters across the archipelago to reporton local developments; they reported on poverty, crop failure, famineand epidemics in 1900. Lawyers and politicians supportive of Brooshooft’scampaigning had an audience with Queen Wilhelmina and argued that theNetherlands owed the peoples of the Indies a ‘debt of honour’.

In 1901, the Queen, under advice from her prime minister of the Christian Anti-Revolutionary Party, formally declared a benevolent “Ethical Policy” which wasaimed at bringing progress and prosperity to the peoples of the Indies. The Dutchconquest of the Indies had brought them together as a single colonial entity by theearly twentieth century, which was fundamental to the policy’s implementation.

But although educational opportunities allowed a small elite to emergeamong the colony’s population, these ethical policies bore little real fruit.The main obstacle was a chronic lack of manpower and funding, and‘local’ attitudes. The policy suffered from serious underfunding, inflatedexpectations and lack of acceptance in the Dutch colonial establishment,and it had largely ceased to exist by the onset of the Great Depression in 1930.

But more of the 20th Century in the next installment.
