This research is to study the development of Malay martial arts Kota Bharu from 1960 to 1991. Many past researchers have researched Silat. However, the research about Silat in Kota Bharu has yet been done. This research was conducted to observe the development of Malay martial arts in a well-known organization, Gayong Fatani Martial Arts Association and Gayuman Segerak Kelantan Martial Arts Association. This research uses a qualitative method by referring to libraries and archives. Primary and secondary sources were used in this research. The primary source refers to document analysis such as annual reports and official organizational files from national archives. Other than that, secondary sources were from national archives, the University of Malaya (UM), Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI) and The National University of Malaysia (UKM). This research finds that every Silat organization based in Kota Bharu has its caterer in spreading knowledge to the community. The development of Malay martial arts can be seen when every instruction has been given the mandate to teach the knowledge gained to the community with the official qualification certificate issued from the Malaysian National Silat Federation (PESAKA). This research finds that Martial Arts Organization in Kota Bharu has changed the community awareness about Malay’s traditional martial arts. In the beginning, Malay Martial Art Association uses informal education and a traditional system considered indirect learning. They will carry out lessons in house lawns, sheds and near a ‘musolla’. Nevertheless, the martial arts educational system was introduced by using a registered organization that has given a more accepting approach to the local communities to learn this martial art until the addition of Silat rings in Kota Bharu.
