There are no specified money changers to go to,i will usually recommend my friends to ask at least 3 nearby money changer shops around the same walking area in Batam,and i would avoid money changers that are very close to the arrival hall of ferry terminals and airport (and those stationed outside shopping malls entrance too).

(if there are no more than 2 money changers nearby within a one/two min walk away,i dont go to it at all; competition benefits the customer)

Variance in their exchange rate are very marginal between money changers in Batam,unless we are talking about those near to arrival halls of airport or ferry terminals. Regular money changers in Singapore definitely wont give as good as in Batam's.

My above said 2 paragraphs were for non-CNY situation. For CNY (1st few days), i would do the direct opposite of what i said above.

such as near hotel utama, habour bay, batam center?
thanks

I wrote about this several times. See this post for example:

Nono gets excellent rates in one of the money exchange shops in front of Formosa (there are THREE, and I never understood which one is the One), but maybe it's partially due to the fact that he is well known by the employees there already. Read his posts carefully to get the hints.

I suggest you ask around in many places before exchanging, at least if you have some significant amount of cash to exchange. For 200-300 SGD, I'd say it's not worth spending half an hour walking around to get 10k IDR more.

That's awesome. It would be FANTASTIC if you, Nono, or other frequent visitors could keep it updated (unfortunately, Permata Indah is not operating anymore) and even complete it with the many others which are missing.
I would not mind about the exact location of places, but at least a list of names. Some new ones open and other close down. Only someone like you can revise it monthly. You would be really the Hero of this forum.

My suggestion is to start preparing a text list of places, grouped by type (booking joint, massage place with extras, KTVs, any other) and by area (the exact address in Batam is not much relevant). The map is the next step, useful but not necessary to begin.

If you and Nono and any other frequent visitor start that, less frequent visitors as me can add their contributions. In a while, cooperative job will make Reference Guide.

1. This year Ramadan was a simple 3D2N trip,but end up having to pay for 4D3N and yet be staying only 3D2N. Even tho the 3rd night was free...but still,i didn't get to enjoy that part.

2. Booking joints were all closed from the front door,but customers were mostly brought in from the back doors.

3. I think this Ramadan trip is pretty much similar with last few years. At least this year I get to try their Break Fast meals which I didn't get to taste it in my last few years of Ramadan trip. I learned that why were there mainly snack food rather than rice food during Break Fast time,hehehe...

4. This trip may sound not too good,but still, its an experience to me. An experience that don't happen to everyone. An experience that doesn't kill me,an experience that makes me stronger and better.....

I guess that's about all I need to record down in this 40th summary, shall be looking to write my 41st Batam trip summary (August trip) hereafter (more on Ex Vietnam refugee camp).

Bye for now.

Go back to Summary Page 1

u finally willing 2 post yr summary liao ah?

A short and quick fr

The so-call hot Favourite joints are carrot shops
Papasan and Mamasan open mouth like "LION"
1.2m, 1.5m, 2m
Refused to reduce
The quality are just meaty girls
Pissed off, walked off and went back hotel
Last resort, use WeChat, shortlist alot and decided on one
Turn up, another meaty girl but reasonable price
Skill is hasty but the only positive is she did not show attitude
TBH, I think maybe she should pay me instead
I don't enjoy the process and cannot even perform
Send her back at the end of the day, I rather sleep alone

Bad experience
