Abstract

The development of the government structure in the Ambon-Lease Islands since the colonial era has also influenced the existence of the Ambon-Lease Island recently, which is currently known as Ambon City, which is the administrative area of Maluku Province. The purpose of this research is to describe the presence of the Dutch colonial government in the late and early 20th century in Ambon-Lease. The method used in this research is the historical method, namely through heuristic, critic, interpretation and historiography stages. The results obtained indicate that the people in the Ambon-Lease Archipelago were completely under the power and regulation of the Dutch colonial government as a colony. The three governor called governments formed by the previous VOC were merged into one with its headquarters in Amboina. It is from the city of Ambon that the center of government is run. All government positions are held by the Dutch who are hierarchically starting from the Governor-Resident-Assistant Resident-Controleur. Controleur has a direct relationship (Direct Rule) with the leaders of state/regent.
