Erm,the best place for me to watch fireworks is right where I am standing in Batam which I will light them my own,hehehe... Believe me, Batam's fireworks is almost all the same as what you could buy from the roadside. (its at least 3 to 5 times more expensive than in China during festive season, for your info) And it often breaks my heart to hear a big bang from any firework whenever I am in Batam (during CNY),hehehe...as each loud bang from the firework on the sky cost an average of about nearly S$1 ,hehehe...

Best place to watch fireworks if you wish to see some more fanciful firework display would most likely be in KTM Resort higher hill area chalet where you can oversee Singapore's Marina Bay Sand. Of course,it is provided if that evening's night sky isn't cloudy,hehehe...

Biz hotel,Da Vienna Hotel,BCC,Zest Hotel,Nagoya Mansion etc where the hotels were taller can be considered to watch some simple firework display too.

Last year,most of Formosa's fireworks is done just outside Formosa front door carpark area (the security guards will help out) and outside Center Point Mall (its an almost empty building). Do note that I am speaking base on CNY 2015 and CNY 2016 experience.


If I don't remember wrong, i took the photo shot from outside Center Point Mall when Formosa was having fireworks during CNY 2016.

This type of question,if I am in your shoe and looking for answer/s,i will approach Sinta. And if I cannot locate Sinta,i look for Yuri (I am sure you know which Yuri I am talking about).

I don't know if your friend's gf is Chinese or non-Chinese. When I say I will approach Sinta,i assume she is Chinese and when I say I will approach Yuri,i assume she is a non-Chinese.

When I say "if I am in your shoe, I will approach" the 2 of them,i also mean that i have already build a certain level of friendship with the both of them and this kind of "things",i have a feeling it is still best to find answers from ladies rather than guys.

I don't have any exact answer/s for your question/s now,but MAYBE after my CNY 2017 trip,i might have them. And approaching the 2 person above is where I would likely seek my answers from. (I actually have another 2 more person in mind) All of them has given birth at least twice before in Batam,hehehe...

There are other options to seek answers, eg booking girls,massage girls, OKT mamis (not papi) etc which must have been in Batam for a substantial amount of time. But I doubt I can hear much details from them nor much quality (reliable) help can be enlisted from them.

Just sharing.
