Yes,little india was the exact description one of my friends told me yesterday. I think the girls appreciate Sillyporeans and Malaysians more during this time of the year. Lots of unhappy looking girls (base on their facial expression) as i notice a handful of foreign workers walking in the streets/malls with a ratio of 4 to 5 and/or 7 to 8 respectively versus maybe 1 or 2 indo girls (walking behind them).

Last year CNY 2016,few of these foreign workers ever try to undercut bro S's chosen girl too. But bro S's girl prefer NOT to take the higher priced option from the foreign workers (about half a dozen of them). Imagine this,mami told you 1.5 million rupiah for X girl,a few foreign workers come by and say they will pay 1.8 million rupiah (and later 2 juta when she refused) for the girl you have picked. Mami ask girl to decide,and the girl chose 'you',hehehe...at 1st we felt pissed but later we all felt honored to beat the foreign workers on the 1st day of CNY 2016.

The foreign workers were however looking pissed. So over time or in future,i think the smarter ones will try to avoid us.

It already tells me a story. Its the time of the year that i can hear many stories,hehehe...CNY in Batam is kind of fun.

Average ratio is 1 Sillyporean to 10 Indian/Bangladeshi during CNY. (i do not include the Malay families in Batam for holidays,there's quite a handful of them too) Ratio above is solely of my own point of view.

CNY 2017,i played my game differently as compare to my last 2 year's CNY trips,hehehe...i dont like crowd,i dont like competition. If i have to pay high,i have to try my best to make it as value for my money as possible. Hehehe...i choose to 'outsource' this year.

Always the same old Batam,but a different scenario all the time.
