Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! It is a most fearful sound, booming like thunder, deep in the forest.

It's what you'll hear in the story of Hoong Siamang Hooong, which is based on a Temuan legend.  There is also a song, an ancient tune, only known to the Temuan people (an indigenous group in Peninsular Malaysia), that can still your fears and send the monstrous ape away. Or so goes the tale.
