I didn't have the photo in my office today,but will post photo later.

Solution : Next time go Batam need to use Power-surge-protector to power up my plugged in laptop. (rainy weather in Batam at year-end)
This is the power socket that burnt my laptop's adaptor...


Can see the wire protruding from the outside of the socket if one look closer.

I don't just write an All Good reviews on the hotel/s I stayed in. Whenever I met with something not right,i wrote them down to warn others too (yes,i have been spoilt in some ways,hehehe...). Thinking about the wasted 700k rupiah already pissed me off. All power sockets should not have their wirings protruding out of the socket itself,and this one is. I am likely to avoid all lower than waist level power socket from now onward...

...and what did the hotel staffs says about it? No compensation is fine but I doubt they will even try to warn their future staying guest about this issue too. So bros who were with me in the past, just be extra careful if you notice any power socket that look very old and "not too right" as what you have seen normally.
