There are no poor sillyporean in Batam,that i am sure,hehehe...the way i see it,they are consistently trying to make themselves poorer...lol. (think about it)

Anyway,there are more than just the above mentioned factor that would lead to your so call "bad". For me,i USE the 7 sins to remind myself everytime i go out to "play",hehehe...

I think it is about playing within your means.
Im more towards the low budget type.....some questioned me where the fun is if Im always watching my budget?
To each his own, thats why I rather cheong alone.

Looking at all these “life as usual posts” on various threads, I really wonder if most of you are aware that SBF has suddenly come under siege with popular Singapore opinion – and actions - now drastically against us. Practically overnight, our forum is now vilified as being the cradle for depravity, for corrupting young impressionable minds etc.

Please go to the following threads to get the latest about this fast developing situation and make your own suggestions on how to possibly save SBF; Boss cannot continue to do everything single-handedly to still provide a forum for all of us.

Its a Cultural Ghost Story in China converted into a RA comic book from Hong Kong, originally written by a famous ghost story writer from long ago but the idea of Green Bean Soup Cooking Challenge using real cash money are the irony,not the story itself.

To cook green bean soup to the right taste,the soup itself needs to be boiled with hot burning charcoal on low slow fire for a certain period of time. So a good tasting bowl of green bean soup will take quite a bit of time.

The story goes like this,a super rich man often visit a high class exclusive brothel in ancient China,and he likes to flash his money so as to show off i am richer and more powerful than anyone in town. There was an auction in the brothel that are held once a week to bid for the virginity of their new girl and this super rich man is always the winner. But in a particular night of that special week,he finally met his match,which is another ultra rich man from another town except that he is possessed by the spirit of a girl that this super rich man accidentally killed in one of the past auction after taking her virginity.

The bidding starts but was not able to come to an end as both men are really super ultra rich and this ultra rich man from another town suggest why not they cook green bean soup using 银票 (pronounce as yin piao aka cash notes of much bigger denomination) which are consider very very big cash denomination in ancient China days. End of the green bean soup competition,the super rich man manage to finish cooking the green bean soup 1st and the ultra rich man from another town lost.

The ironic part of this story is that the female ghost wants revenge and later possess the virgin girl and took the life of that super rich man who won the prize. The super rich man tho is the winner did not get his prize,the young girl's virginity but instead died of a heart attack,hehehe...the girl who didnt lost the virginity was later married to the ultra rich man from the other town.

In Batam today,i have seen illustrated situation of the "cooking of the green bean soup using money" by men of the same interest,hehehe...and do you happen to be one of them? Remember i said this before,there are no poor sillyporean in Batam and almost everyone wants to win in the Green Bean Soup Cooking Challenge over one another...lol.

Just a short story with a lesson to learn,please dont take it too seriously.

I dont too. So if there are no trust between the buyer and seller,the only assurance would be a promise of a higher charged price so as to deter the buyer from buying.

Good morning all,

Need a bro who is keen in a visit to Batam.

Absolutely newbie here, having moved from Australia to Sing. But have always been keen to check out Batam.

So I'm planning to go this week for 2D1N. Either tomorrow and Wed, or Wednesday to Thurs (14th - 16th)

After reading all the detailed info probably over 100 posts and all of Nono's excellent advice, I've conceded that I probably shouldn't do this alone as my first visit there. Just getting confused with the taxi, commissions, where to stay/ eat etc. and the 1% dangerous factor has me a little worried. Heh

So anybody keen to join me and learn together?

While I look Asian, I can only speak English, so any advice is welcomed.

Hopefully Bro NoNo will let me join and enlighten me on his next trip out.

Looool ... Everyone is a connoisseur in his own right. It's just that for me, I wouldn't drive out of my way to, for example, eat mie pangsit (or cheap food which likely won't justify petrol cost, time and parking fee). So hence why my own food FR tends to be in search of pricier but solid quality or hard-to-come-by cuisine; worth the driving, petrol etc.

I also totally understand infrequent-visiting bros here generally food-FR in touristy areas. I would too if I were one.

Cheers!

I love durian too, but it's so complex to handle.

One year ago, I bought a durian from the market in Batam (in front of Avava, on the way from Formosa to Planet Holiday, so to speak).
Next day, I packed it in my backpack with my dirty clothes in Formosa, brought it to Singapore Harbour Front on ferry, then to Changi using MRT, then checked-in with my luggage to my home country in Europe via Paris CDG.

I finally opened it in the kitchen of my parents apartment (I avoided to open it in MY apartment ), for the enjoyment of everyone who never saw a durian before.

The durian sure travelled far.
