The blandongdiensten system was introduced by the Dutch in Indonesia. In this system, the Dutch exempted some villagers from paying taxes of cultivable forest lands in exchange for labour and animal fodder. In return, these villagers were paid a small wage. It was exploitative as the villagers were restricted from using the forests.
