Two publications which probably contain numerous examples (I have
checked only cursorily) are:

1947 Malay Proverbs, Bidal Melayu. 3rd ed. Singapore: Eastern
Universities Press Ltd.
Winstedt, Richard
1950 Malay Proverbs, chosen and introduced by Sir Richard Winstedt.
Reprinted 1957. London: John Murray.
Happy hunting.
