At the time ''Tuan Direktur'' was written, Surabaya was one of the richer cities in the [[Dutch East Indies]], serving as both a port into the colony and as a stopping point for trade traffic headed to Australia. The city's wealth was decisively contrasted with the fate of the lower classes, who were not benefited by this trade. Writing for the Indonesian Department of Education and Culture, Putri Minerva Mutiara, Erli Yetti, and Veni Mulyani wrote that this may have influenced Hamka to set his story in the city.{{sfn|Mutiara|Yetti|Mulyani|1998|p=164}}
