About Me

Malay Martial Arts : Silat: Pencak silat or silat ("fighting by using techniques of self-defence") is an Asian martial art with roots in the culture of the Malay people. This art is widely known in Indonesia and Malaysia but can also be found in varying degrees within countries such as Singapore, Thailand, Brunei, and the Philippines amongst others.

"Harimau" (tiger) and "Monyet" (monkey) are some examples.
