I
am what I am! What about you?
Growing up, people believed I will amount to nothing,
Embarking on the path of the warrior they laughed.
Striving to be the best against all odds, they put impediments in my
path.
I finally made Harimau Minangkabau Pencak Silat wholesome and martially accepted, they criticized.
I crossed over from the cocooned world of the martial arts into the
real world of tactical combat and warfare in war tone arenas where pretty
boys are not protected by glossy magazines and competition referees,
did they believe?
Finally my combat and survival realism took me into crime combating
and presidential protection, they frowned.
Now my methods, style and panache is imitated globally by the people
and descendants of the very people who tried to extinguished this eternal
flame. This dream
Can you turn your dreams into reality in the
face of adversity? Yes you can.
