Kertok is one of the
traditional entertainment of the Kelantan Malay community. The origin of the
Kertok game begins when it is used by rice growers for the purpose of repelling
birds during ripening rice season. Nowadays this tool has a complete function
and can be said to be well-known in the traditional Kelantan society which is
the average farmer community.
Kertok is made using Merbau or Nibong timber
which is centered in it and filled with old processed coconut shells. The
coconuts were split in two and placed a piece of wood made from Nibong wood, a
kind of hardwood hammered. This board is known as a "belira" or a
leaf and is tied with rubber on a pole located at the top of the kertok.
Sometimes it is decorated with banners of various patterns and colors and
interesting drawings.
Kertok is played at public
ceremonies or officiating celebrations of the State's Chief. It can be played
by two people or a group. A group consists of 12 to 24 participants. Kertok
Paluan also has certain songs such as Ropok, Anjol, Kuncah Manis, Gadoh,
Kudarambak, Kedogong and others.

This game begins with the creation of a hunting and rounded animal
hunting tool. When thrown this tool spin around and hover before hunting
animals. They then use rope to get a stronger shot. From where they used it as
a way to test someone's efficiency it dumped it and about the target. The tool
is then designed in such a way as to such a form as the present day.
