I have already confirmed heading to Batam this 19th Feb,Thu and be back on 21st Feb,Sat.
be careful pigpocket hor. Uncle going thired day of china new ear becas hotel i like stay slowly became cheaper.Go back 22 jan if u still there maybe can meet 4 kopi in morning.
most of the ferry ticket voucher apply for any passport holder except the batamfast ($17 without terminal tax, the only one that can be used in harbourbay). horizon ferry does not issue ticket voucher to be sold outside.
how much is the ticket, it's depending on the ferry operator and which money changer that you buy. but it won't be more than $30.. if u buy the one at $30 or lesser, there's no more terminal tax that you need to pay.. but if you bought the one at Rp165k or $17 (sindo ferry or batamfast for harbourbay), you still have to pay terminal tax at ferry operator ticket counter when collecting boarding pass. but sum amount will be same also.. won't make any difference.
Any issues if buy a 5kg speaker system back to sg?
Don't understand why you want to buy electronics in Batam to bring back to Singapore? Singapore would be cheaper n electronics in Batam are imported from Singapore.

Hehehe...who knows,i may stay another night,but that is subject to hotel/ferry availability and also the Ang Bao i am going to take from you,if it can cover my hotel for another night...lol *joking*
Jokes aside, if you coming morning or early afternoon,i may still be around. We can then link up if the timing is right. PM me when you reach Batam.

I am not sure about speakers or if you are carrying bulky item back,but the weight wise should not be an issue. At most time,i always carry more than 6kg of items back from Batam to Sillypore...i also buy handful of electronic items too. The thing is most of what i buy arent bulky. If the size is of a small suit case,then i believe it shouldnt be a problem,eg a carton box size of Indomie instant noodle.

Oh my! i seriously need to thank you for this information...after reading your post then i know i cannot buy S$600 or more worth of items from Batam to Sillypore. I practically exceed that amount in almost every trip...lol. Shall need to watch my spending from now onward.
Really really thank you.

Hmm....for the real branded electronic items,yes...Sillypore may be a bit cheaper...but not for the parallel imported electronic goods and China branded stuffs. I checked and compared with Sillypore China Town and Sim Lim Sq,Lucky Plaza electronic stuffs are cheaper,hehehe...as in after bargained. Its only a little bit more expensive than wholesale prices in China's whole sale vendors,but the good thing is i dont need to purchase these electronic items i wish to buy in bulks. So i am guaranteed to know which are the better quality goods and which arent. Eg. 8 GB micro SD card at 50k-60k.
Here's my 2nd FR to Batam. Headed over to Batam on Sat, supposed to go with camp mates but all put aeroplane last min so headed alone. 9.40 Ferry
Followed Bro Nono's guide and headed to Kaha to book a hotel. Big thanks to bro Nono. Luckily Formosa wasn't full, headed to Formosa to check in before going to Nagoya Hill for lunch. As I was going to meet some girls I met online, didn't want to book any girls. After lunch, headed to buy some keropok before heading back to hotel for wifi and to decide on where to meet up with my friends from online. Had some time to spare and decided to go to king's. Massage was soso, forgot the number of the girl i chose but well. Pictures are DECEIVING! She did pop the GQ and immediately quote me 600k, i offered 300k and she declined so didn't get any.
At about 4pm, met the girl and had coffee at Vienna(level 1 Formosa Hotel). She asked if I wanted to join her friends and her for dinner but was quite skeptical so i declined and jio-ed another girl out for dinner.
Dinner at HB than back to my room with her to chit chat, she left about 10pm . As i was bored, scrolled through wechat and some other apps hoping to find some fun. Unfortunately, all quoted about 500k for ST. Couldnt bargain to 350k so didn't get any.
2nd day, tried to find delta based on guides here but still could not find my way. As i had about 3hours to spare, decided to go to ocean at HB and took the normal package. 125k/1.5h. Massage was definitely better than Kings and the room was much bigger and girl was more friendly. As I was in the tub, played around with her she popped the GQ. managed to bargain to 450k.
Looks : 6/10
Body: 6/10 (slim but saggy boobs)
No bbbj/bj, light frenching.
FJ: 4/10. Kinda loose but wasnt too bad
Overall, this was suppose to be a group trip but since all put me aeroplane, did not really want to spend too much.
Once again, big thanks to Bro Nono for the guide he posted.
