For every sickness there is a remedy

Silat

Silat is the traditional martial arts originating in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Silat Tuo Minang refers to the cultural traditions of the Minangkabau people of West Sumatra, Indonesia, where Silat is incorporated into the traditional and cultural arts, dance, theater, and forms of healing. The Minang people are known for their unique culture and customs, their systems of adab and adat, as well as their distinctive traditional headdresses and architecture, reminiscent of the horns of the water buffalo. The Minang people are one of the oldest and largest fully functional matrilineal societies still in existence in modern times, with their roots and heritage stretching back to the 6th century and before.
