True.

Price of everything every year also increase, with or without inflation. I remember last time you say before, once upon a time booking in Batam only 250k - 300k or so. Look at today's pricing now...hehehe...compare with 1.4 to 1.8 juta. My salary + market inflation also never increase 4 to 6 times.

What i am trying to say is the interest i earned next year will be use to at least subsidize the amount of spending which i will be doing in Batam, & even more so when Batam increased its price.

Next year is just 2 months or so away. Very fast can collect interest (better than put inside ordinary saving account in Singapore, right?).

Hehehe...thank you.

Lucky i didn't put all "eggs" inside one basket.

Therefore every other month through out the year 2023, can collect interest month by month (to spend in Batam).

Thank you for this information.

Hi bro, good deals still around. Just need to use a bit of trick & effort.

The S$39 1-way deal i posted earlier has gone up to S$41 now (damn the ferry operator).

Nevertheless, i learned that during 11/11, the "S$2 off S$25 spend voucher" can be used. Therefore after taking out 1000 coins which is equivalent of S$10, amount is S$29.00 nett.

S$41 - S$10 (coins) - S$2 = S$29 nett. (2 way = S$58)

Just have to keep trying, & i hope credit card voucher can use as citi-bank credit card giving S$200 voucher (just applied) & UOB giving S$100. If it can be use, ferry ticket can go as low as S$11 for 1 way (S$41 - S$10 - S$20 credit card voucher = S$11).

* S$20 credit card voucher is base on denomination of S$100 UOB's 5 pieces of S$20 = S$100.

Just sharing.

PS: 11/11, platform can use up to 2000 coins = S$20, hence making a S$41 digital one-way ferry voucher becoming S$21 (hasn't include other vouchers from credit card nor its platform yet). Just mix & match to one's preference.
