Crayter, from my understanding, has had a history of stockpiling Cardamine for use by their own people, as to my knowledge part of the population of Borneo itself is already of Maltese origin. It's not solely for the *MR|. That much I had to ensure was clear during the RP years ago. Nothing's given away. That'd just be stupid.
The supply of the faction goes primarily through the CR as Crayter can act as a middleman for the *MR| to obtain supplies that it in turn pays the CR for. Whatever the CR doesn't use for those who need it that they govern is sold off to the *MR| as surplus. Bear in mind, the CR population is roughly 20 times that of the *MR| (give or take, I'm still figuring out the actual numbers for both but have a rough estimate as well as clarification from the devs), which allows for the runoff from the CR to handily supply the micro-state *MR|.
"Maltese ships that aren't Maltese" ex: Maltese ships from a Maltese faction conveniently supported by a population of non-cardamine addict, non-Maltese people. And I'm sure that all that surplus Cardamine is just sold to them, with no concern for futureproofing in the event that the supply gets cut short. And plus, considering you just described the working population of MR| to be non-Maltese, I have difficulty believing the faction itself is Maltese anymore, or why they would be working under a banner of reforming a foreign government they have zero reason to care about. It's a bit like a German revolutionary faction being comprised of mostly Swiss people, who more or less live in Switzerland and don't even identify as German.
