Willem was active in developing the economy and infrastructure of the Indies, including Pulo Aceh. In some of the references mentioned, Willem built the lighthouse aimed at setting up Pulo Weh (Sabang) as a transit port of the Malacca Strait.
Based on info collected from
kebudayaanik.kemdikbud.go.id, because trade unions of the Dutch East Indies, VOC, has stood up. Port infrastructure and navigation facilities became a basic necessity at the time and the Dutch aspired to create a transit port of Sabang like the State of Singapore.

All tower buildings built by Willem are dedicated to kings such as the Hollands and Caribbean Islands including the Aceh Island minaret tower that functions only in Atjeh and built on the Caribbean islands, the Hollands has turned into a museum.
