Example of Recount Text
Bandung as Sea of Fire

Bandung as Sea of Fire was a fire


that occured 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 amunition
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".
Any Question?
