...and one more thing they are also good at, if i die, i am kind of sure they will send my body back to Singapore.
Remember Samat, the security guard who has a heart attack in Batam and were send back to Singapore hospital whom i talk about years ago? He still die in Singapore hospital tho...

The Nagoya Food court, i pass by few times. May not wish to go there until 5th day of CNY onward. Every food court likely to be crowded on the 1st few days of CNY. But i have got Grab Food on my PC,hehehe...so i will just order what like from there.
I really got a very long list of food things i like to try out in Batam, but time doesnt permits hence i am taking CNY to do a step by step walk through. And over half a dozen of them looks something like the below pork/boar meat...
Really no time and no chance to try since few years ago, this year i kind of want to try them out as much as possible at every chance. The issue i encounter with these pork/boar meat seller is that...they close shop very early and rarely opens till evening time.
Where there is crowd, i try my best not to be there,hehehe...

I used to travel a lot and have on occasions been contacted by MFA to render assistance to their consular officers due to my familiarity with the locality or populace there.
