Hot Spring in Selangor?
In Batang Kali?
Well well well… This is new to me.
First and foremost, I just learnt that ‘cholo’ means
‘jenguk in Bahasa Malaysia or ‘to look around or over something by stretching
or leaning’ in English. And ‘cholo’ is a Minangkabau dialect; originated from
Sumatera in Indonesia.
Located in Hulu Tamu in Hulu Selangor and founded by
En. Othman Omar in 2008, Ontok Ontok is now managed by his son; En. Lokman
Hakim and his wife Pn. Emas Zaherra. The area consist of a restaurant, chalet
and camp site called Ontok-Ontok as well as Cholo Cholo Hot Spring.
Air Panas Hulu Tamu or hot spring are found by
accident through a villager while looking for a buffalo calf who is jumping
with surprised that the water it was drinking is too hot. During the Japanese
invasion in Malaya during the World War II Japanese soldiers found Hulu Tamu
hot spring as a healing site for those who were injured. Hot water from the
spring can accelerate the healing process and is believed to cure ailments and rheumatism.
Ontok Ontok Enterprise decided to build the Cholo
Cholo Hot Spring approximately 30-50m from the main chalet area. The hot spring
consist of a few pools that is categorized by the degree of heat, once this is
ready, a nominal fee will be imposed as it will come with proper changing area
and washrooms. Not only that, this whole area will be fit for small scale team
building - a great total experience for attendees.
