Wushu in Singapore information


Wushu is a successful industry in Singapore, with successful practitioners of the sport emerging from the country. Wushu was already gaining prominence in Singapore in as early as 1967. The country was hailed as Southeast Asia's "best wushu nation" in 1993. In 2000, the Government in Singapore initiated wushu into its Sports Excellence Scheme.

As of 2013, Singapore won two gold medals, three silver medals, and seven bronze medals at the World Wushu Championships, placing it at number 20 in the world. The Singapore Wushu Dragon and Lion Dance Federation, formerly known as the Singapore National Pugilistic Federation, is the official body which oversees and governs the sport in Singapore. Among the notable wushu professionals in the city-state is Vincent Ng, who became the first individual wushu champion from Singapore in 1995.
