Got back from Batam yesterday, go by Wavemaster they have free bus shuttle to 5 hotels from terminal. Cannot remember all the hotels, only remember Swiss-Inn and Goodway Hotel.:)

Went to Princess Massage at Komp Ruko Paradise Centre Blok P No. 12A at 2nd floor for massage. Very unskillful, got extra service and daring but I did not try.
The girl quoted 100K for hj and 400k reduce to 250k for fj say for me special price, keep pestering me as I was not keen. She was wearing tight jeans up to above knee level. I say how to do, she say not problem and take off everything. Then I ask her where to do and she mentioned right in the room and assure me that very safe. :D So this place looks like every girls are doing :D

Re: Batam Info Thread
 

bro, u are right..
batam some taxi driver really terrible, always find chances to korek
those they think they can makan, its good to remind all bros here to
be more careful with taxi..

i ever encounter one time, i was with my friend at balindo (travel agency beside hotel holiday), after booking flight tiket, then we intend to look for hotel, and we decided to stay at Novona (near BCS) due to lazy to walk, and a driver approach us, so we just take a cab. the taxi quoted 25k, i think price alright, and we get up his cab. but instead of bring us straight to hotel Novona, he drive us around to 4 or 5 others hotel like Virgo, Sari, Famosa.. ect.. and each hotel he stopped and keep asking us to go down take a look but in a very friendly way. mi and my friend immediate know wat he up to, so after visit i think 5 hotels, i told the taxi, we decided not to check in hotel, but to eat first, so we ask him to drop us at sinar bulan coffeeshop. when reach there, i get out of the taxi went to his driver sit window, showing him one 20k and one 10k note, before i give him. he immediate say no, asking for 100k, and say he bring us to many places and from one hotel to hotel, all counted by trip. i reply to him, i only ask u to bring us to hotel Novona, who ask u to bring us round and round, now u want u take. 30k. the driver show a very angry face, shouting in high voice say we refuse to pay taxi fare.
then suddenly his taxi surrounded by few playmand, my kawan.. :D
one of my kawan just pointed at him and say something like, "mau jalan atau mau masalah.." i think the driver also knw who he is and just drove off..
i even save the 30k.. :D the reason why i ask the driver to drop us off at sinar bulan coz we know the driver up to no good.. :rolleyes: and nagoya still our playground.. :p

good to have such types of friends who can ask the taxi driver to fuck off...last time, ah pek kuay2 paid the pest 20k as the formosa does not pay commissions...the pest shouted at me....but he did not know that all ah pek has is money...hahaha!!!!

Re: Batam Info Thread
 

Thanks Bros who gave those things to look out for. At least will know what to expect.
