Some martial arts myths

No, you did not mention Wu Tu Nan, and since you brought up Sim Pooh Ho, who claimed his relationship with Wu Tu Nan to market his association using. I come to question the legitimacy of his claim which is relevant to the topic.



NWP Anniversary magazine you said? If I question the legitimacy of their relationship, then even the article come into question. Sim Pooh Ho can show all the photos he has taken with Wu Tu Nan, bear in mind that Jet Li did the same thing to improve his status in the Martial Art Arena. For all I know Sim Pooh Ho could have written the article himself.

Little did you know that the book joint published by Wu Tu Nan and Ma You Qing was release after the death of Wu Tu Nan. Ma You Qing help to compile and published the series in memory of his teacher and he wanted to help fulfill Wu Tu Nan's wishes to spread Tai Chi. In fact most of the stuffs in the series are work of Wu Tu Nan and Ma You Qing have not tried to take any credit from it.

It is a fact that Ma You Qing is a close door disciple of Wu Tu Nan, and the fact that Ma never recognised Sim Pooh Ho speaks volume.


Hi liar: read the website below

Obviously you will n can claim the cut-out is fake. If you are a gentleman, you should retract the absurd claims you have made. I doubt you will as you are a liar and a twit. Also go read Li Lian's book on yong jia (if you understand Chinese!). It is clearly stated there that Pooh Ho being a diciple of Wu Tunan. So you have been reading pornographic book not qigong/taiji. :oIo:


EXTRACTED FROM JIANGHU:


I took the opportunity to ask Pern Yiau about something I’ve been curious about ever since I first encountered Nam Wah Pai in 2003. This is about Grandmaster Sim Pooh Ho who is apparently the holder of “Gold Belt 10th Dan”. I’d never heard of a Gold Belt, so - as a sceptic - this had always been ringing an alarm bell in the back of my mind, as there are so many frauds in the martial arts field. I was curious - who had awarded this gold belt? Apparently it was an honorary award presented by combined martial arts bodies of Singapore, in recognition of his skills. Actually, as I write this, I just checked their web site, and the explanation is there, but I’d missed it before:

In 1986, the Singapore Karate Federation, Judo Federation, Malay Silat Federation, Indian Martial Arts Federation and Tae Kwon Do Federation jointly awarded the Gold Belt 10th Dan to Grandmaster Sim Pooh Ho, for his mastery and contributions to the world of Martial Arts.

In that same year, the President of Singapore, the late Mr Wee Kim Wee, awarded Grandmaster Sim the Public Service Medal PBM (Pingat Bakti Masyarakat), for his contributions to Martial Arts in Singapore.

So there we are, now I know! He didn’t award it to himself :-D

Somewhere in the conversation, the topic of longevity came up, and it reminded me of something else I’ve been meaning to blog for some time (totally unrelated to Nam Wah Pai).
