Foreign Capital and Colonial Development in Indonesia: A Synthesis Jan Thomas Lindblad
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

This article discusses impacts of investment by foreign firms, in particular Dutch firms, on economy and society in Indonesia during the late colonial period (1910-1940) and immediately after independence (the 1950s). It starts out with a survey of the historiography, arguing that impacts of foreign investment on the host country have not been sufficiently specified in the literature. It offers a digression on the dimensions of foreign investment in colonial Indonesia as inferred from newly available primary data highlighting the chief characteristics of such investment. The article surveys a variety of economic and social impacts on the macro level and the level of individual regions and selected firms, focusing in particular on impacts that have so far received scant attention. A major conclusion is that positive gains did materialize in the host country, both economic and social, but also that the gains stayed short of what could potentially have been realized. The Dutch private firms investing in colonial Indonesia did display a measure of corporate social responsibility but their initiatives and efforts in that vein could have reached, considering the profitability of their operations. If so, they would have had a significantly larger impact on economy and society in colonial Indonesia.

Foreign Investment and the Middle Income Trap in Southeast Asia David Henley
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

This article focuses on the post-colonial catch-up by Southeast Asian nations with developed countries. The article offers an analysis of the nature and causes of the middle income trap in Southeast Asia. It discusses various interpretations of this concept, concluding with the dichotomy between laissez-faire and interventionist development strategies. Empirical evidence is provided from the automotive industry in Malaysia and Thailand. Two rival explanations of the lack of strong interventionist policies in Southeast Asia are given, one stressing the weakness of political pressure on national governments, the other linked up with historical patterns of ethnic specialization and division. The argument draws on secondary sources and reflects on implications for the study of Indonesian economic history in the colonial era.

The Profitability of Dutch Business in Late Colonial Indonesia Jan Thomas Lindblad
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

The issue of profitability of colonial business lies at the core of the argument about a possible colonial drain depriving the overseas territory of opportunities to selfsustained economic growth. This contribution seeks to assess whether profit rates of private foreign firms in the colonial economy can be considered excessive or a reasonable compensation for capital and know-how made available to the colony. The article contains brief sections on historiography and methodology as well as new estimates, including a preliminary discussion of results. The article argues that profit rates in colonial business were generally higher than elsewhere, but also that the difference was smaller than has often been imagined.

The Development and Character of Foreign Investment in Late Colonial Indonesia Mark van de Water
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

This contribution discusses the development of private foreign investment in late colonial Indonesia. The increase in numbers of individual firms, their expanding volume and accumulation of investment in the Netherlands Indies are shown. The focus is on the years 1910-1940 and on Dutch foreign investment, although investment by other countries is touched upon in passing. The data used for this article originate from a database compiled from the Handboek voor cultuuren handelsondernemingen in Nederlandsch-Indië (Handbook for cultivation and trading companies in the Netherlands Indies) and will also be incorporated into my PhD dissertation entitled ‘Foreign investment and colonial economic growth in Indonesia’, which forms part of the larger research project ‘Foreign capital and colonial development in Indonesia’.

Colonial Corporate Social Responsibility: Company Healthcare in Java, East Sumatra and Belitung, 1910-1940 Frank Ochsendorf
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

This article discusses the impact of investments by foreign firms in healthcare and hygienic measures on indigenous society in late-colonial Indonesia (1910-1940), focusing on three principal centers of foreign investment activity: Java, East Sumatra and the island of Belitung. Such facilities, although primarily intended for workers and their families, were sometimes accessible for members of indigenous society without contractual or family connection to the private company furnishing them. In rare cases, private companies invested directly in the welfare of local communities. The article concludes that the impact of the social investments on the state of health of indigenous communities was generally positive and a much-needed addition to scarcely available public healthcare. While such social investments can be regarded as examples of proto-corporate social responsibility strategies, the improvement of welfare was always a means through which the ultimate goal could be achieved: survival of the company and maximization of profits.

“Saudagar Bandoeng”, 1906—1930-an Dede Rohayati
Lembaran Sejarah Vol 14, No 1 (2018): Special Edition: Decolonization of Business in Indonesia
Publisher : Universitas Gadjah Mada

The growth of Bandung as a city at the beginning of the 20th century, has produced urban groups that dominate parts of the urban economy. One group was known as Saudagar Bandoeng or the Bandung indigenous Muslim merchants. They started growing as middle-class urban Muslims who rely on their economic life in the commercial sector. There are three reasons for the emergence of Saudagar Bandoeng, namely the rejuvenation of Pasar Baru market in 1906, the rise of batik trading and the modernization of Bandung facilitated the traffic goods and people to and from the city of Bandung. The Saudagar Bandoeng emerged as a community of santri traders which were relatively different from that of rural santri traders. The birth of the Soedara Association (Himpoenan Soedara) as an organization for santri traders to promote indigenous economic sector in Bandung represented one of the rise of merchant nationalist identity as has been seen in other cities such as Surakarta.
