1968 August - SAD US passport update removes “Barack Hussein Obama” (no II).
Isn’t that the document that has “Soebarkah” crossed off? So isn’t that the actual last name he was using at that time?
Correct. The full name was shown including Soebarkah and Soebarkah was to be removed. Why anyone ever assumed there was a Soetoro adoption beats me...he would have had a stepfather on the strength of the divorce that gave her custody, when SAD married someone named Soetoro.
If he was adopted, I dare assume it may have been by a family named Soebarkah.

It is hard to say or even speculate what the parathesised “Soebarkah” means.
The only absolute I take from this action is that Obama WAS removed from her US passport and that it is unknown what passport he was provided or if another adult or guardian picked him up as a minor on another passport.
The trail stops with this removal. Why?
If he went onto an Indonesian passport and did not hold a US passport the answer would be obvious.
