No special at Spa Secret. Spa Secret actually paid drivers to bring all the singaporean to them and their price is not cheap. Reno good but the skills of the masseuse no standard la. Sometime good sometime shit massage for that price.

If you really WANT to try the REALLY REALLY GOOD and GOT STANDARD MASSAGE and NO HANKY PANKY of course. Look no further than SPORT MASSAGE in Batam. It is the best massage I ever have anywhere in Indonesia because every single trips I went, the massage is got standard! Even if I have diff masseuses on every trip, the standard are there. Masseuses are small size but damn got strength if you like those hard type (read PAIN) of massage.

Of course if you want BJ those type, don't bother with it. It is nearly impossible to get a massage slot on weekend because they are booked full by the locals. They are that good and famous in Batam. I only had my massage on weekday off day when I am based in Batam last time.

Really thank you,bro. So,they were from the island of Java,so no chance to see them in Batam then....hmm...

Nonetheless,i sincerely thank you bro for your help.

Note that its cheaper than the Green jungle fowl, which is beautiful

1st of all,thank you for the link,bro.

Their History :

I dont plan to buy them and/or bring to Sillypore,its too much hassle with the AVA and the HSA. But it's definitely worth just having a look at the real thing,tho not in Batam.

The green jungle fowl looks ordinary to me...sorry,i am not a bird fan.But the
Cemani Chickens does leave an impression when i read about it months ago. Anyway,how often does one see a total pitch black chicken and in Indonesia?

Their egg cost US$25 !!!! And minimum order is 1 dozen...lol. Thats not counting the US$120 shipping charges. *faint*

Below are some write out from the link you gave me regarding its legend :

Legend says :


And the mystery behind them :

What actually impress me most from the read up is a pure breed Ayam Cemani's blood is in BLACK.

I have been reading the link provided by you since yesterday. Thank you bro for sharing the information that helps me learn much. Beside the World most expensive (actually its 2nd most now) Luwak Coffee,Indonesia have one of the rarest Ayam Cemani chicken too. I believe its most expensive too cos the highest i seen it sold at US$475 000 and the buyer arent really buying the chicken but more for the chicken's black blood. Impressive!

Thank you bro.

all signboard outside, f house or special message shop all call message.

Just follow the list,bro. The list was made as a guideline for newbie going to Batam so they dont need to waste time/money to go try everything out that they dont need or want. And if you happen to try out massage places not on the list,just give an approximate location of the place and the name of the massage shop,i will add them to the list next month. And if you try out any places on the list and they have some changes,can also share here so i can update it too.

Thank you bro.

Ok,i guess the blood is so dark red it looks black. Or otherwise much darker red than most normal chicken.

Thank you for correcting me.

Come to think of it,the Chinese uses Black dog blood to chase away evil spirit,the Indo magicians uses Black chicken blood for magic purposes...hmm...interesting.

Fear grips Batam as soldiers attack Brimob HQ
Fadli, The Jakarta Post, Batam | Headlines | Thu, November 20 2014, 9:24 AM

Dozens of unidentified Army personnel surrounded the headquarters of the Riau Islands Police Mobile Brigade (Brimob) in Batam, Riau Islands, opened fire and vandalized its facilities.

The situation in Batam between 5 and 11 p.m. was tense as the soldiers refused to return to their barracks and hand over their weapons, defying orders from the Bukit Barisan Military Commander Maj. Gen. Winston Simanjuntak.

Batam Deputy Governor Soerya Respationo and several journalists were caught in the cross fire as they remained inside the facilities after earlier attempts to settle the dispute failed. “The soldiers are firing at us. We’re surrounded,” said Soerya.

The shooting ended at around 23:30 with hundreds of civilians storming the Brimob headquarters to lend their support for the police against the attacking soldiers.

One soldier was rushed to a nearby hospital suffering from a gunshot wound. But several soldiers were seen roaming the streets searching out police officers, despite claims by Winston that the situation was under control.

Earlier in the day, around 30 soldiers from the Tuah Sakti 134 Battalion in Batam, Riau Islands, had raided the Brimob headquarters.

The clash was believed to have been related to the shooting of four Tuah Sakti Battalion members at the end of September during a police investigation into a fuel-hoarding case.

After the initial attack, the elite police unit headquarters was guarded by a company of military police to prevent further clashes.

Wira Pratama Military Commander chief Brig. Gen. Eko Margiyono told The Jakarta Post that the incident had begun with two Tuah Sakti Battalion members, identified as First Private Nuriyono and Chief Private Budiono, who were on their way to their lodgings located near the Brimob headquarters, after a roll call at the battalion to change their uniforms into plain clothes.

“Many of our soldiers live outside the base. As they were filling up their motorcycle at a gas station, two Brimob members were also filling gas at the same place. They stared each other out causing offense, which then resulted in a fight,” said Eko.

According to Eko, the fight between the four men drew the attention of colleagues from both sides, and numbers rapidly grew. A group of around 30 Tuah Sakti Battalion soldiers gathered and planned to enter the Brimob base.

“The moment I received information, I and the Batam 0316 Military Command chief headed to the Brimob base and held a meeting with its commander to settle the problem and instructed members of the military police to order the soldiers to return to their barracks,” said Eko.

According to Eko, his command was not heeded and some of the soldiers stormed into the Brimob barracks and a clinic located nearby.

“They vandalized the barracks and a number of motorcycles. However, the situation has returned to normal and the soldiers have returned to their base,” said Eko. earlier in the afternoon.

He added that he had ordered all soldiers in the battalion to remain in their barracks.

“Now, a military police company is securing the Brimob base. I assure you that today’s incident had nothing to do with the earlier incident. This is purely staring at each other which resulted in a fight,” said Eko.
