English translation:Before cremation

Explanation:
It looks like a typing error to me. The sentence before and after is compared.

1. Belum dimakamkan - Betul/dikremasi - Before funeral/Before cremation
2. Telah dimakamkan - Telah/dikremasi - After funeral/ After cremation

Suggestion from Ian Forbes - not yet cremated. Thanks to Tony and Ian

Terima kasih untuk bantuannya. In fact, I was also wondering if this could be a typo but this being on an official formular made me rather hesitant...

confirmed cremated

Explanation:
"Betul" is actually another (informal) expression of "benar-benar" which gives emphasis. The closest formal emphasis is "confirmed" indicating that the cremation really has been carried out.
Never saw such letter before so it's my best guess.
