Potato was introduced to Europe at roughly the same time. The Dutch came to Asia to -colonize- trade. They also introduced their culture there and that include the foods. In Indonesia, potato is well known as ''kentang''. In Japan, it was called ''jaga imo'' back then, which means ''jaga 'bulbs''. Jaga maybe came from Jayakarta, nowadays the port city is well known as Jakarta. So, in a nutshell, before the birth of internet, the world was connected by the potatoes.

The wages that were eventually paid to VOC sailors weren't that bad. It's just that a Dutch sailor had to survive a few years untill he got back to Holland to get paid.

Those that did return, squandered their money away.
