Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

[rpd21]

long time lurker of this thread. created the account recently.

Been to batam thrice. Once with family once alone and once with friends. Had pretty interesting experiences each time. There was this KTV then my friends and I went to (cant remember the name but there were plenty of pool tables outside in the main hall) that we got ripped of pretty badly. Imagine paying sg prices for drinks and girls. Lesson learnt was that always ask the price first before agreeing to anything. Totally spoilt our night. Ended up going back to the club below our hotel No Name to pick up a girl. It was about 1am and we just wanted to f and sleep lol

When alone, I explored all the cewek joints but didn't choose any as I wanted to get an idea of the standard of the girls. Might choose one when I go over to batam this weekend. I understand you need to go before noon as all the SG guys will quickly book all the better looking ones...Anyone going at the same time?

Anyway thanks Mr Nono for your very detailed informative guide . If Lonely Planet ever needs a R rated guidebook to Batam, they should hire you LOL !

I went some times to those in Nagoya Hill, aiming at the "top quality" in island. I am not sure it is the top quality, but probably it's the top price. Very expensive, compared to local cost of life. Quality so-so. However, I needed a simple cut and I had it. Maybe the most expensive in island.
There's one open 24/24 on the street from Formosa to Windsor.

I would recommend not going to Thrive. That's where I went and got conned. maybe i not so savvy that's why. But the quality of girls...also not good.

Anyone heading to Batam this weekend pm me.

well for a price of $3 you can get those cheap barber to cut the hair.

or pay $7-10 to get those shitty skilled barber in noce attire and luxury place to cut for you.

Check out the locations of the joints. Stay in a nearby hotel like Formosa, convenient to walk around and check stocks. Do not use any local taxi, go jeks etc. to visit joints as commissions of at least 300k IDR will be added to fees. Check Nono guide for locations of joints like Bunga, MM, Sri Kandy, etc. and visit these joints early for good picks. Price of stock ranges from 800k upwards for overnight booking, bargain with papasan or mamasan for better price.
Can also try WeChat in Batam if you are experienced enough to filter out those scams. Advise to lock all assets in safe and do only ST with WeChat girls.
Enjoy and play safe. Cheers.

Thanks. Someone recommended me to Willy Salon. I will go check up the price. I don't mind paying like $10-$12 for a haircut.

I treat my hair quite seriously haha. So I can't trust those cheap barbers. I will look out when I am shopping in BCS / Nagoya. Thanks anyway!

Batam seems to be getting more interesting,hehehe....took a Go Car Taxi at a price of 18k rupiah to this temple...

...and had a vegetarian lunch at a cost of about 18k rupiah inclusive of a drink at their restaurant...

...and with a wide variety of vegetarian food to choose from...

The set back is,we have to clear our own empty plates after eating (its a choice tho,no one will force anyone to clear their own plates there tho). Reminds me of Singapore's army camp,hehehe....good tasty food! Or at least,it taste good enough for me. 3 dish 1 soup anytime for one pax cost me 18k rupiah (plus a can of drink).

I have also found fish and chips (and other western dishes) in Nagoya area in this trip costing only 20k rupiah,hehehe...i think bro L will be happy to know the location. Shall share more when i have the time.

Long time no see and long time no fuck people. So a nice afternoon greeting to those stingy and bark like a dog. GOOD AFTERNOON AND FUCK YOU STINGY BASTARD.
