Silat Olahraga, the famous art of Self Defense in Malay States, introduced about years ago and originated from Indonesia, Java, become a part of activity in the college's CCA. It is the way at which man hold together mind, body and soul to prevent attacks from enemies. It requires more exercise than Army Cadet.

There are many types of Silat including Cekak Kuntau. This type of Silat is more to self defense than fighting enemies. If a student can posses all of the Silat subjects, consequently they can master the other hard and typical arena of doing Silat. All student of Silat Olahraga will be given belt for their success after a year training. Fortunate students who have the skills and abilities will be encouraged to participate in any competitions either within the country or even nations.

Taekwondo is another type of self defense and originated from Korea. Taekwondo mainly involved in kicking rather than punching. To learn Taekwondo, we must learn how to balance ourselves as kicking is not like punching. When punching, we stand on two legs but when kicking we only use one leg to stand. Like Silat, Taekwondo student's also given the belt at the end of each year to show the rank by white being the lowest and black being the highest. The skilled students are chosen to participate in any competitions nationally or internationally.

It is the opposite of Taekwondo, involving more punching rather than kicking. Like other martial artists, the students are encouraged to participate in any competitions held in the country or in other countries.
