Its like a form of respect to the info receiving party.
Example :
Someone can ask...
Q : How to go to Sekar Massage?
A : Raise your hand, hail a nearby taxi and tell driver you want to go Sekar Massage.
This answer will result in the one who ask the question paying a higher price,isnt it so? And then someone will start blaming the sky and the earth that Singaporean very stupid, keep overpaying etc etc...
My reply :
a) Take a taxi to Paragon hotel, step in to the hotel, walk out of it again, turn right. Walk straight towards Hana hotel and opposite Hana hotel entrance is Sekar Massage.
b) i post a map from his hotel to Sekar massage.
Pay less, plus learn more (be more independent and not-so taxi-reliant). Why not?
Not willing to learn? Then it would save me lots of time,hehehe...since to me,they have other intention/s in Batam.
Of course, i am NOT going to reply like what i did above to everyone. I only do that for information that arent as updated and mainly to those who has good proven track records in forum contribution. If its repeated stuffs, unless there are new updates, otherwise i would just post a link that leads to my answer (or at times, other contributor's past reply to the same question).
And i not superman, cannot reply to question i didnt know and/or keep answering question/s that can be commonly found in the thread.
The "link" of my reply at the least shows them a "direction", so they are NOT totally clueless. This thread is afterall called
Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread,arent it?
