Silat Seni Gayong Malaysia is the first martial arts association to be registered in Malaysia. It was founded by the late Dato' Meor Abdul Rahman. He started to teach Silat Gayung at Pulau Sudong (now part of Singapore) during the Japanese occupation of Malaya in World War II. The highest ranking master is Siti Kalsom and is named heiress to the late grandmaster.[1] In Malaysia, Gayong is operated under an organization called P.S.S.G.M which stands for "Pertubuhan Silat Seni Gayong Malaysia." This organization is currently led by its President Datuk Adiwijaya bin Abdullah.
