Kadet Remaja Sekolah Malaysia (Malay for Malaysia School Youth Cadet Corps) is a scout-like movement organised by the Government of Malaysia as a youth organisation.
Kadet Remaja Sekolah was founded by Muhammad Thani Bin Sha'aban at SM Raja Abdullah, Jalan Kepong, Kuala Lumpur. Initially, this organisation was known as Kadet Putera Islam Malaysia (literally: Malaysia Islam Boys' Cadet Corps) and its membership was open to SM Raja Abdullah Islam Students' Association. It had only 20 members in the beginning consisting of Form 1 and Form 2 students only.
