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.

The Supersemar, the Indonesian abbreviation for “Surat Perintah Sebelas Maret” ( Order of March the
Eleventh), was a document signed by the Indonesian President Sukarno on 11 March 1966.
It is said that it was giving the army commander Lt. General Soeharto authority to take whatever
measures he ”deemed necessary” to restore order to the chaotic situation during the Indonesian
killings of 1965-1966.
The abbreviation of “Supersemar” is a play on the name of Semar, the mystic and powerful figure
who commonly appears in Javanese mythology including wayang puppet shows. The invocation of

On 10 November, Indonesia celebrates Hari Pahlawan or Heroes Day in remembrance of the Battle of
Surabaya which started on that very date in the year 1945. The bloody battle took place because
Indonesians refused to surrender their weaponry to British army. British Army at that time was part of
the Allied Forces. The defiant Bung Tomo is the well-known revolutionary leader who played a very
important role in this battle.
It all started because of a misunderstanding between British troops in Jakarta and those in Surabaya,
under the command of Brigadier A.W.WS. Mallaby. Brigadier Mallaby already had an agreement
with Governor of East Java Mr. Surya. The agreement stated that British would not ask Indonesian
troops and militia to surrender their weapons.
However, a British plane from Jakarta dropped leaflets all over Surabaya. The leaflet told Indonesians
to do otherwise on 27 October 1945. This action angered the Indonesian troops and militia leaders
because they felt betrayed.
On 30 October 1945, Brigadier Mallaby was killed as he was approaching the British troops’ post
near Jembatan Merah or Red Bridge, Surabaya. There were many reports about the death, but it was
widely believed that the Brigadier was murdered by Indonesian militia. Looking at this situation,
Lieutenant General Sir Philip Christison brought in reinforcements to siege the city.
In the early morning of 10 November 1945, British troops began to advance into Surabaya with cover
from both naval and air bombardment. Although the Indonesians defended the city heroically, the city
was conquered within 3 days and the whole battle lasted for 3 weeks. In total, between 6,000 and
16,000 Indonesians died while casualties on the British side were about 600 to 2000.
Battle of Surabaya caused Indonesia to lose weaponry which hampered the country’s independence
struggle. However, the battle provoked Indonesian and international mass to rally for the country’s
independence which made this battle especially important for Indonesian national revolution.
