Totals (67 entries)		627	594	809	2,030

The sum totals of gold, silver and bronze medals are not equal for the following reasons:

• Sanda events changed from awarding one bronze medal to two bronze medals per event in 1993.
• Occasional none-awarding or sharing of prizes.
• The 1995 rendition had several winners per each prize in taolu events while sanda events only awarded a gold medal to the winner of each event.
• Stripped medals are taken into account in the table above.
