There goes again (happens all the time,hehehe...), there will be some that i will reply to, there will be some that i wouldnt bother to even read. Reason as in, most if not all basic info meant for 1st timer/s and newbie/s were already on my signature (and page 1 of the thread),hehehe...almost like a hold-hand service.

I think i even updated my signature recently with a small booking joint list and Men's spa listing. There are too many massage shops in Batam,hence i didnt do a list of it.

I got used to the above-said of my own already. I eventually came to a conclusion that everyone in a public forum has the right to ask any question,post anything or share anything. Just like anyone and everyone has the right to reply to anything and everything (versa not to reply too). And if anyone do not like anyone's sharing,posting and questioning, they can "ban" them on a personally scale whereby i guess thats what the "ignore button" on the left-hand side of each post is for.

Hehehe...in any case if you wish to ignore me,here's how to :

...and i hope you are not thinking that i didnt keep a troll/clone-feeder list,wont you?

I created a post on how to search someone's post on 2017....

https://thesbf.shop/showpost.php?p=15...postcount=5987

...i dont do that becos i have nothing better else to do. And i use that "search" function quite often (not all the time tho) in this thread before i made a reply.

Hmm...wonder what new movie is coming to Batam this coming CNY 2019 now...hehehe...

So much for 2018. Now to head towards serious-mode in preparation for my upcoming CNY 2019 trip,hehehe...

Hmm...after re-reading the CNY Info that was compiled,i realized that i might need to add on more info into it. I missed out the CNY money changer portion and hotel booking part....*sob* ...and i have about 20 days to do so.

Boss should give you some kind of recognition for your time, effort and contribution.

Info collected is meant mainly for myself,others were secondary...hehehe...

When i have collected the amount of info, i can then make comparison of the year to year,month to month on what changes and what hasnt.

Mainly use for pricing,service level,exchange rate,market survey, girl quality etc. I didnt lose out ,so i am doing things that eventually benefits me,hehehe...

Horniest girl i knew in Batam were from Bandung (wet-easy). Tightest pussy however were from Surabaya tho. And Jakarta girls were where i can expect consistency,like those from Thailand,China etc. Girls from Bali is most customer orientated.

I learned not to put all eggs in one basket.

Just a personal preference.

Lion Air used to not charge extra for passenger bringing more than 7kg on-board (for hand carry bags),Jan 2018 they start to impose extra charges.

CNY time, horizon ferry ticket going to Batam cost an extra S$12.00 over the regular S$48.00...i believe hotel room wont be low too (which is why i book them few months in advance).

Looks like Hang Nadim price is going up,not a good sign.

I have updated the CNY info link :

With things about money changers during CNY. Its the only time of the year where one can notice Singapore money changer's exchange rate could possibly beat Batam's money changer,hehehe...during my last 4 CNYs, it has been like that.

Just keeping record.

Next, to go shop for CNY goodies in Batam,hehehe...Uncles and aunties kept telling me Sea Cucumbers 海参 is cheap in Batam but the problem is,i dont even know about the market price in Singapore and do not have experience on how to pick good ones.

Hi Bros, need to ask something about the continental breakfast displayed on Booking.com

They have 2 options. 1 is Breakfast included and the other is breakfast at S$13. Does this mean I could just pay the $13 at the counter on the day i'm at the hotel if I want to have the breakfast there?

Hi guys, i'm going to batam from 14-15th with a friend. Previously have only been going to happy8 and sri kandy. Read all the lists of places from nono and the rest but i can't seem to find a location for Da Hai or Yue Guang. Anyone knows whereabouts are the above mentioned places?

Many thanks in advance

It depend on one / two paxs.
The price is on per person and exclude taxs.
So breakfast included may be cheaper if for two paxs.

A little update on the Horizon Ferry ticket pricing. Horizon wont be charging an extra S$12 for the CNY 2019 ferry trip as according to Horizon fast ferry counter staff/s.

Horizon also giving away 2 x 50k rupiah Eska massage voucher too (for ferry ticket purchase).

King Massage per hour massage has gone up by 10k rupiah. From 110k rupiah to 120k per hour. Shall update its full pricing at a later time.

Luckily i have a membership discount card,hehehe...but still,the price is an 8k rupiah increase for me (with a 20% off). Price increase is never a good thing for me.

Just sharing.
