Career

After completing school, Karim was assigned by the colonial government to Pontianak, where he worked for eight years before he returned to West Sumatra to be assigned in Solok. After the Japanese invasion, Karim went into hiding for some time as the Japanese sought to capture former colonial officials before a lack of administrative personnel prompted the Japanese to offer Karim his civil servant work back. He was assigned to Bukittinggi in 1943, working there a year before being reassigned to Air Bangis, West Pasaman Regency. He returned to Bukittinggi in mid-1945.Шаблон:Sfn
