Dutch story refers to *Aceh Pungo* to the people of Aceh

The Aceh War against the Netherlands erupted with great force in 1873, many victims were killed on the Dutch side as well as decisions due to the war which also did not end up making the Netherlands implement a new strategy by forming a marsose army.

According to the aceh of the western Acehnese culture, Isnu Kembara, the actions of the Marshall troops were cruel to the people of Aceh, made the people's resistance no longer in groups but faced Dutch military forces on an individual basis by spontaneous killing. Whenever and where to meet Dutch people, the Acehnese at that time immediately killed without fear of being killed again by the Dutch.
The spirit of war saga sabil in poh kaphe makes the people of aceh compete to fight the Netherlands in the hope that they will die of syahit or the reward of syahit, and this action makes the Dutch do not think about the actions and behavior of the Acehnese who are considered insane.
Then the term atjeh moorden or aceh pungo was so popular in Dutch military circles that anxiety began to hit Dutch military officials if they were assigned to Aceh.
Even though Netherlands hoped that the shape of the Marsose troops would make the resistance of the people of Aceh increasingly fade and surrender, but on the contrary. the people of aceh were increasingly determined to attack military barracks, a convoy of Marsose troops even entered the residence of a military official only with a capital of rencong and machete slipped in the waist and that was only done by a common Acehnese and some did not come from fighters.
Finally, the Dutch empire sent Dr.RH Kern, a government adviser on geothermal affairs, to examine the behavior of everyday Acehnese whether it was really crazy. it turns out from the results of research conducted for months it turns out the research conclusions show that the nature of killing typical Acehnese is done by people who are not mentally disturbed ... aka sane people. Then what is the background so that the act of killing fears Dutch ... the answer is a sense of resentment that burns in the hearts of Acehnese by holding the principle of "tung if" must be done.
This is one of the stories of why the Dutch called Aceh Moorden or Aceh Pungo to the people of Aceh in ancient times and the term was very popular in the daily lives of Acehnese, feeling proud to be called Aceh Pungo but angry when called mad Aceh. whereas the same meaning is only a different meaning.
