Funny Video: 26th SEA Games - Pencak Silat.

The recent Sea Games hosted by Indonesia is a regional event that as Malaysian we cant help but keep an eye out on some of their combat sport events. You can check out some of the combat sport results here.

But the this SEA game saw some really funny & controversial incident at the Pencak Silat competition that saw a few videos going crazy on youtube and being shared...

The video below showcase a match between Vietnam & Indonesia...




If that wasnt good enough check out this FINALS competition video between Indonesia vs Thailand!




In case you were wondering... the referee decided to give the winner of that match to Indonesian fighter.

The referee who gave the victory to Indonesia however got in to alot of trouble. Read here.  

I think it's a little degrading to see the sport & martial art of pencak silat being given such light and watching the behavior of their fighter acting this way. Hope we all learn something from this video... and that is the great exemplary survival skill of "Bite, Run & Hide".
