In the Dutch East Indies, the Dutch applied indirect rule primarily through a system of local governance that utilized existing traditional structures and leaders. They maintained control by co-opting local rulers, who were allowed to govern their territories in exchange for loyalty and tribute to the Dutch colonial authorities. This approach enabled the Dutch to minimize administrative costs and resistance while ensuring that local customs and practices could continue under their oversight. By leveraging local elites, the Dutch could exert influence while maintaining a degree of stability in their colonies.
