Bandung as Sea of Fire was a fire that occurred in the city of Bandung on March 24, 1946. Within seven
hours, about 200,000 residents of Bandung burned their homes.
British troops as part of the Brigade MacDonald arrived in Bandung on October 12, 1945. Bandung was
deliberately burned by TRI and local people. There were black smoke billowing high into the air
everywhere. The British Army began to attack so fierce. The greatest battle happened in the Village name
Dayeuh Kolot, in South Bandung, where there were a large ammunition depot belonging to British. In this
battle, Barisan Rakyat Indonesia destroyed the ammunition depot.
The strategy to fire Bandung was considered because the power of TRI and people’s militia was not
comparable to the British forces and NICA. This incident inspired to create the famous song “Halo Halo
Bandung”. To remember what they did and struggled, they built the Bandung Lautan Api monument.
