Kuntao

Wikipedia

 
Kuntao is a term from southern China meaning Kung Fu.
Purely chinese Kuntao styles exist in China and Taiwan, but kuntao styles have been spread for centuries by merchants and other travelling Chinese people.
You can find kuntao styles in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Borneo, Singapore, as well as in some other countries.
Some kuntao styles were not changed but many were. This happened because the styles had to be adapted to a new environment, fighting in different terrain, fighting local styles, defending or fighting with local weapons.
Some Indonesian kuntao styles began to integrate techniques from Silat styles and some even changed their name from "kuntao" to "silat".
