Gangga Melayu (Malay: Tulisan Gangga Melayu, Perak Malay: Hurup Ganga Malayu) is a cipher script and an abugida that were used to write the Malay and Perak Malay languages in Perak sometime until the 20th century. The writing was once used to write chiri, the old coronation formula of Malay kings of Perak. The writing system is unique for having both Abjad (Jawi) and Abugida (Brahmic) features.
