2. I am very interested
with Silat. But, I come from a very poor family. Actually, I cannot afford
to buy uniforms for training. Is there still room for me to join this martial
art?
-Yes,
you are extremely invited to join Cekak Hanafi. In Cekak Hanafi, new members
are not required to buy uniforms. They can wear track-bottom and T-shirt
during training. Uniforms can only be worn after they completed all the
stages in Silat Cekak Ustaz Hanafi.
3. How much fees do I need
to pay for my whole time with Silat Cekak?
- Well,
for higher education centre like MARA College Banting, the fees for the
course is RM200. But,why must we begrudge the money if it is used for a
good cause? Especially in Cekak Hanafi, we can guarantee you that the knowledge
that you will gain is much more valuable than what you have to pay. Moreover,
this is very cheap compared to other martial arts. For instance, to reach
a certain level in some martial arts require you to have a test that cost
RM100 and there are more and more level to reach. It's difficult and very
annoying compared to Cekak Hanafi.
4. Every martial arts have
their own main principle. So, what is the main principle for Silat Cekak
Ustaz Hanafi?
- Yes,
we also have our main principle which is 'Pakai tak pakai, tak pakai
pakai'. This principle can only be explained when you join Cekak
Hanafi. So, don't wait for too long before it's too late. Join us!
5. What are the top regulations
in Cekak Hanafi?
-In
Cekak Hanafi, there are five top regulations that must be obeyed by all
members otherwise they can be expelled. The regulations are:
a) All members must always obey all God's
instructions.
b)All members must always obey all of
their parent's instructions as long as it didn't contradict with the religion.
c)All members must always obey and respect
their teachers.
d)All members cannot fight among Cekak
Hanafi members.
e) All members cannot insult any other
Malay silat heritage in any way.
6. We only got two years
here in MARA College Banting to learn this silat. I'm afraid I can't finish
it within two years. How long does it take actually to learn Cekak Hanafi?
-Don't
worry, actually you only need one and a half year to complete the syllabus
in Cekak Hanafi. What you only need is full commitment, dilligence and hardwork.
This year (2004), about 40 members of Cekak Hanafi here will graduate as
they have completed the syllabus.
7. Are the coaches really
that reliable to teach a lot of members in one time?
-Actually,
in MARA Colege of Banting, we have about 7 coaches, 6 men and 1 woman to
teach about more than 100 members. Most of them have experiences of more
than 10 years with Cekak Hanafi. Despite busy with their work, they still
have time to voluntarily teach Cekak Hanafi for the sake of spreading the
knowledge here. Moreover, some of them work as engineers and businessman.
One of them is still doing her Masters in one of the local university.
