(thats if i see the offer again) Thank you.

Long time don't travel between SG<=>TBK....
The Rp60k(or65k?)Tax from Balai still NOT INCLUDED right?

Remember the lady who check for tax and boarding pass alway ask for HER OWN TAX.

I travel to/from Balai at domestic side...
don't need to see her face

If Balai is Barren then how to describe Batu and Babi?

Do believe that WHAT one's expectations and WHAT one's WANTS counts.

No birds never mind got lots of hens n chicks.

Once a while I still to like to go and look for my old hen.

Also time go to check hows the development of coastal area

Hehehe...so many hotels faraway from main town of Batam providing free shuttle service to downtown Grand Batam Mall,hehehe...this one below is from Holiday Inn Resort.

...this one below is from Planet Holiday, ok this Planet Holiday is around Jodoh area at Nagoya, so it is actually not very faraway but they only provide shuttle service during Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

This below is from Best Western Premier, which is also from around Batam Center area,hehehe...

...and here's one below from Radission. I will show you a few similarities of among all these hotels who provide shuttle service to Batam later,hehehe...

...one more from Baloi area, Crown Vista Hotel, which is almost at the borderline of Batam Center area.

All these hotels who that provides FREE shuttle service to Grand Batam Mall shows a few things in common.

1. Their guest/s has all shown wishes to wish to come down town to Grand Batam Mall, hence they provide such services.

2. If they do not provide such services, they are likely to lose competition to the other hotels nearby BCS mall. Each trip from Batam Center area to Grand Batam Mall or from hotels not in Nagoya area gonna cost at least 100k from the hotel itself which will add on to the cost of the tourist/s.

3. The tourists coming to Batam, or at least majority of them, knew about Grand Batam Mall, hehehe...since Harbour Front ferry terminal has got a big big photo showing the newly opened mall which is at the main tourist area.

What i am trying to say here is no matter how Batam center is developed as a touristy area, Nagoya area is still the most tourist's preferred choice to be around,hehehe...and while Batam Center area is growing, Nagoya area is moving forward too, and in a faster speed.

Booking cewek online from social such as Wechat, Michat, etc. Here's the following better advise i found that were shared and discussed before by a handful of senior bros in the thread.

And if you are looking at something way more detailed than those shared above regarding wechat girls/social media online girls base on years of accumulated experience in Batam, below were some sharing done up by 2 bros in the forum which i find that is worth every newbie's reading.
