This is not the 1st time those taxi driver at Harbour Bay try "digging" for more (i experienced it myself few times),hehehe...spoil them once,they will shit everywhere and there are solution/s and this is mine.
1st, i dont know where is Batu Ampar,hehehe...or i should say, to my knowledge Batu Ampar is Harbour Bay. So i use this photo from Zest Hotel as a benchmark :
...and if it fail,i use this one :
Notice the phone number on the signage above? Yes...simply dial for a taxi within Harbour Bay. Take note nearly outside every hotel at Harbour Bay has a taxi stand sign that looks something like the above photo.
And if all else fail,here's my 3rd move....i walk back to where i 1st step out Arrival Hall....
...and take a taxi from the new entrance taxi stand. Of course,need to open mouth to ask 1st before jumping into taxi,hehehe...it would still be 30k,i guess...but i would prefer to save 5k rupiah by heading over to Zest Hotel which is roughly about 30 steps away from the taxi stand (in between would be the about-to-open-for-business Marriot Hotel).

If it is within Nagoya area, price should be 30k rupiah.
I made a wild guess,i think becos of the recent taxi driver revolting in Harbour Bay due to the frequent usage of online taxi,hence the management came out with this idea of the 30k taxi fare. Let's not forget,people has been complaining about taxi driver charging higher and higher over the last few decades,hehehe...and there are more and more of such complaining people who has over time become smarter.
Note : Most Go Car drivers dont seem to wish to pick up customers from Harbour Bay itself.
