The group’s name is the acronym for “Only Tackle The Odds”.
It constantly reminds us of the many challenges ahead that we need to overcome as we pursue our objectives.
We use the baobab tree as the group’s logo. Baobabs grow in arid environment and they can endure harsh drought conditions. The group hopes to have the same resilience and endurance in its endeavors.
Damien Soh, Founder and Chairman
The Soh siblings, founder of the group, are from Johor Bahru.
Before 2OO9, the siblings were in the construction industry.
The siblings like to sing.
But it is then too expensive to sing karaoke in JB.
The siblings had an idea.
They wanted an AirAsia equivalent, budget and no-frills karaoke.
So in 2OO9, they opened the first Loud Speaker Karaoke in JB.
By 2OI7, there are 8 Loud Speaker outlets in JB and KL.
Besides singing, the siblings also like travelling.
They appreciate the many value-for-money hotels of the world.
With this interest, they started their first hotel chain, Hako, in 2OI7.
In 2OI7, all their businesses are grouped under OttoTree.
Village 17, an Intergrated Leisure Centre, opened 2019
