These coupons were issued by the Brooke Raj government as part of Sarawak's rubber export control scheme in the final months before the Japanese invasion of December 1941. Rubber was a strategically critical commodity — Allied demand had driven tight regulatory controls across British Borneo, and the coupon system was a mechanism for tracking and licensing exports at the point of shipment.
The Survey Department of the Federated Malay States, based in Kuala Lumpur, printed documentary and control materials across multiple British territories, not just survey maps. Whether any significant quantity of these coupons reached Sarawak before Kuching fell on 24 December 1941 is an open question.
