Although not my particular field of knowledge, I can say that the sword in question is a Pedang from Indonesia, which was a Dutch Colony. The blade LOOKS to be untypical of the Pedang in that it is fullered, and could well be a Dutch blade mounted in the "native" way. The stamping looks to me to be the real deal.
One of our many collectors in this field will be able to confirm this info I hope.
