Sometime things beyond any control. I believed the price may stay for awhile for joints, but still will go up in future.
Last time FL hard to cari makan, that why join joint, easier to get tamu. Now too many places for them. Joint price up maybe due to follow market. Remember last time is commonly 300k with taxi, without taxi is 220k. Cewk get 110k, joint get 110k. If continue this pricing now, where got cewk still want to work at joint.
Then after sometime, some joint up to 400k, but cewk still only get 110k. Then more and more cewk left joint to work as FL or PR. Then in order for joint to attract more gals to work for them, slowly system change to 400k, cewk 200k, joint 200k. Then happened again FL due to be over pampered, start to rise price, pacific used to be 300k to 500k up till 500k to 800k, milf at 400k. Joint cewk not stupid also, they know FL rate. Then many left joint. So same thing happened, joint up the price again, in order to attract cewk to work for them. Then is what we see now, commonly 500k, 600k.
And last time many cewk join joint due to can borrow money from joint first, but now when times getting better, not much cewk getting desprate to join joint to borrow money.
As for tipping, may not be bros here spolit market, althogh some do

may be other nationality. Korean is famous to be generous in tipping, even pinoy, I mean those working at batam. Anyway, nothing can be done to change anything. Everyone in this world hope to be paid higher, same to FL, WL.
that's just my view. may be wrong, coz I don't open joint.
