I agree with all you wrote. I think I met girls belonging to all three categories and I second your advice in all parts. Applause and thanks! PS: You forgot to mention an upper category of girls: the sexy young darlings who go to Square, well dressed and accompanied by local rich boys or super-wise white men, who 1) work in Batam and had the time to get very well acquainted and 2) are not only generous in spending their money but are also handsome, really handsome and considered handsome also in their home country without the advantage of the exotic face. This kind of girls are out of reach for 99% of us (I include myself, sadly), unless one has the time to invest time to have a real girlfriend. |

I just feel that in public forum like this, the more practical info are given, the better the forum is, otherwise it will be some people talking among themselves which they themselves understand, and the forum goes nowhere. |

(photo taken from the web) ![]() Reason why i followed this Grand Batam is becos another new CGV theater is there as well. And they also have Sweet Box there too,hehehe... ![]() Notice they have the Velvet seats too, but not for 2 person. I will got figure out what is Satin ,Satin suite - Gold and Satin suite Velvet later. https://sbfsg.agency/showthread.php?p=...post184 67751 Since there is 2 good movies in the month of April (Shazam and Avenger Endgame), i might try going to this mall at least once,hehehe...provided its open for business already. ![]() Mall appearance above...this Grand Batam Mall seems pretty impressive, and well-located. ![]() Seems like quite a lot of places in Batam having new malls. Hopefully those smaller scale mall wouldnt one day end up to become like the one below : ![]() Center Point used to be quite impressive when it 1st started too.

There is S$2 , S$5 and S$10 on the floor, a normal human will pick up all the notes but why would they choose to pick up only S$10 and reject the other denomination? I notice a small handful of more intelligent local touting taxi drivers took themselves up as Go Car drivers too, which i thumbs them up. Actually ,most Go Car and Grab driver in Batam are probably part timers, judging from their driving experience, the type of cars they use to pick up passengers and their limited knowledge on knowing how to reach my destination. I think most were probably holding some full time jobs some where.

Maybe those private taxis, on seeing how low the tariff is and not knowing about the bonus system, decide not to sign up. After all, they have been having it good for soooo long. |

Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread
For bros who were planning to go Batam on a Day Trip or a 2D1N, can try this Zest Hotel.
1. Look for Zest Hotel website (i cant put up the zest hotel link here due to the advertising rule in the forum,so you gonna google yourself) 2. During booking, key in promo code BOOKDIRECT 3. The amount w/o the code is about 370 000 rupiah per night with breakfast,walk in is about 375 000 rupiah. 4. After the code, its 314 500 rupiah (sometime even lower than that or can be a bit higher). __________________________ For bros who wish to stay 2 nights or more, there is currently another new promotion. ![]() 1. Go to Zest Hotel website 2. Key in promo code ZESTAYCATION 3. Price should auto comes to 570 000 rupiah for 2 nights. Meaning each night is only 285 000 rupiah. Comes with breakfast. 4. But if you are staying for 3 nights, one needs to book 2 nights 1st then use the promo code of BOOKDIRECT for 3rd night. Note : If you are a smoker or non-smoker, remember to ask (type in your request during booking) for the respective type/s of room you need. Promotion ends 30th June tho,hehehe... Why Zest Hotel? 1. Taxi fare is free shuttle service provided to the Nagoya Hill Mall (base on their schedule). Will need to talk to receptionist as its not displayed on the counter. ![]() 2. From Zest to most parts of Nagoya area, taxi fare is 35k rupiah,in case if you miss their scheduled trip. (note : Taxi fare from Harbour Bay taxi stand to anywhere in Nagoya area is 30k rupiah) 3. For very short distance up to Planet Hotel or Pacific hotel, fare is 25k rupiah (i would choose to pay them if weather is hot or when its raining). Just sharing.

Read on... Quote:
They are full timers. They held full time jobs as a local touting taxi drivers and they have the most number of taxis in Batam Grab/Gocar taxi drivers : They are mostly part timers. Most of them can live w/o being a Gocar/Grab drivers. They only go to customers at their convenience. Its easy job, pick up, drop off but need to do it all at the right places. Silver Cab/Blue Bird Taxis : They are full timers too. I think they are the most poor thing among the 3 lot, often squash in between Grab/GoCar companies and Local touting taxi drivers. How many of us actually uses them here? Their pricing were metered and traveling cost is about between GoCar/Grab's lowest and Local Touting taxi driver's highest. ![]() _______________________________ I do put some thoughts on this too - If GoCar/Grab taxi driver's non-driving full time job were threatened, how would they feel? They might probably become mad too. Just like the Local Touting taxi drivers whose full time job were "taxi drivers". Then again, playing hooligan and resorting to violence isnt the way out as it really piss off tourist like myself. The solution i could think of is blending into the market pool of online taxi apps companies (Grab/GoCar) whereby the Local Touting taxis still gain the edge since they were operating full time. They can join Grab/GoCar and try to pick up all "S$2,S$5 and S$10 notes on the floor". Laziness (Sloth) is a sin. If one choose to play lazy yet expecting to earn more, then i think its not fair. Few trips ago, i took a Blue Bird taxi when i order for a GoCar. ![]() If there is no Local Touting Taxi and ONLY Blue Bird/Sliver Cab taxis and GoCar/Grab left, end of the day end-user will still suffer too. Just like the current Sillypore situation whereby no group/s will stand out to spoil the market for everyone else. Taxi companies will increase their price as and when they wish to. Illustrative example : I read bro Blackpage's FR, he pays 50k rupiah (no bargaining or haggling at all) for taxi from Harbour Bay to anywhere in Nagoya some 7 years back, today he is still paying the same. Trying looking back how much was Singapore taxi fare around 7 years ago and then compare it with today. Will bro Blackpage still be paying 50k rupiah in the years to come? (make a guess) Hehehe...and what is the price for Sillypore taxi fare in the years to come,especially when GST is set to go up soon? ![]() Anyway, above-said were just some thoughts of my own and bits of sharing.
