Ran into MicMac888 today at BCS. He will be out of Batam for extended periods from next month and was asking if there's any trip coming up. He can meet up and catch up a bit.

Hi bro, may I ask where is this passion69 located and what it was used to be? sounds like a massage place since you put Keyzha together. And the package 8xx rp do you mean 8xx k rupee include FJ？I suppose the passion is not around UTAMA since you mention it is only joint with special. Is it around Nagoya mall?

10 tickets cost about S$400+ leh (round trip)...too much for a stingy nutcase like me who travel to Batam only once or twice a month. Getting someone to share its total cost for a better price sound more feasible,hehehe...i am eyeing at bro S too,hehehe...

You are consider lucky that those bad luck befall only near to end of your trip. Imagine in the beginning of the trip,stepping out ferry already kena bad luck,the rest of the trip sure to almost smells stinky.

Just like Goodway hotel may sound good to you but to me,their receptionist were not good,and i suspect becos i got my hotel from Kaha therefore they are giving some sub-standard service from the very beginning (and i stayed there for 2 nights).

My incident was when I was queuing to get checked into Goodway,and when its my turn to be serve from the queue,the guy who were suppose to serve totally ignored me and the family behind me got served instead. Imagine that...,of course i need to count in it was peak season,everyone at the reception was busy and that becos i took from Kaha,they may have mistakenly took me as a local and i assume they mostly want to serve foreigners 1st (becos foreigners could be tipping them more there).

Changed to Paradise Massage,i guess...hehehe...

In my last trip which is beginning of Aug,Keyza was still around (i passed by). I think they change the soup but didnt change the medicine. Most likely only their sign board has change. These places were trying to increase their pricing with an ever-dropping standard of service but everytime they increase the price,their business drops,so i think they were trying to find excuse to up their price again. To try to catch unknowing customers off guard.

Anyway,its a relatively long time since i last visit them. A place i wouldnt recommend to anyone i know today.

The shop is closed already.

$400 for 10 tickets to HBB (Batam fast or Horizon) is good deal. I'm getting $31.50 for Sindo Ferry to Batam Centre / Sekupang.

He's avoiding the forum now. So, you gotta contact him offline. Gotta do with the adjustment park girl.

I got my room via Agoda. So, maybe they thought in foreigner. But, the counter girl, Juwita, is very attentive to my requirement.

Yup, change signboard but other stuff remain the same, except that they had 2 more service level at higher price tier. Wouldn't recommend anyone to go there as well. The only reason I'm there today is that I'm on a day trip and their room comes with attached bathroom. Else, no way will they earn my money.

By the way, was just informed by my tight body Smooth skin 20 yo mami that their joint just had a Mandarine speaking cewek started work today. My schedule is tight hence no time to go take a look.

Happen to chance upon all the ferry companies from the Singapore Cruise Centre and run thru them a little :

From Harbour Front alone :

Batamfast Ferry makes about 12 to 14 trips to Batam Center daily

Sindo Ferry makes about 12 to 14 trip to Batam Center daily

Majestic Ferry makes about 12 trips to Batam Center daily

From Tanah Merah Ferry terminal :

Batamfast makes about 9 trips to Batam's Nongsapura ferry terminal daily.

Notice how many ferries were embarking at Batam Center? Thats not counting others not from Harbour Front or other neighboring countries. How not to be crowded? How not to get messed up one day in the long run?

Batam itself is already unpredictable enough,hehehe...I go Batam to relax and enjoy myself,i just dont wish to be face with too many uncertainties and even more unpredictables for simple traveling matters.

The difference is,i dont like to rush things,it almost always wouldnt turn out well. i do tends to plan for bad situation in case i am faced with one, the same reason why i often have a plan B.

Over my last 2 year plus in Batam,there are handful of things i cannot control.

1. i cannot control when the haze is coming where ONLY Batam center will halt all their ferry service (for half a day)

2. i cannot control the Batam local from protesting near Batam center (causing traffic jam)

3. i cannot control the seabed at Nongsa where it is more rockier during low tide (a ferry sank there somewhere last year)

4. i cannot control terrorist from spreading flyers that they plan to bomb certain area (fear inducing)

5. i cannot control terrorist from firing a bazooka to Sillypore in an area where Batam can see Singapore. (sekupang)

6. i cannot control Batam center custom officer from sending me back to Sillypore when they already have a history of sending back an average of 50 people per month (as stated in news)

7. i cannot control when someone tries to smuggle something into/out of Batam Center (since its always crowded there which makes smuggling easier) and got caught

If i dont remember reading wrongly in the old thread,in Sillypore changing of ferry timing (to a certain number of times) need to pay extra few dollars,but in Batam back to Sillypore, changes were free.

And i will never have to be held ransom by any taxi driver/ojek when they dont drop their prices,hehehe...becos i know i can walk anywhere i wish to go to from thereon. Not that i like walking from Harbour Bay to hotel in every trip,but what happen if there is a "if"? Like a riot? A taxi driver protest? Haze? Rain? Some political big shot coming to Batam? It has happen before,and it wont stop happening in future.

Even if i may save a few dollars,i have to leave hotel at an earlier timing,or reach hotel at a later time. The waiting time to chop my passport,the time for the ferry to reach the harbour,the crowd due to many ferries debarking there,the queue...last but not least,i ask myself...if i am a terrorist,to choose a ferry terminal to bomb,which one will i pick? Hehehe....

Yes, Passion69 has been rebranded as Pleasure Massage. Prices are still somewhat similar:

Package "O" (90mins including vitalitas & body massage) - 348k
Package "HJ" (All the above + 1 HJ) - 548k
Full Package (All services in Package "O" + 1 FJ) - 848k

Long time never visit Keyzha liao... U mean it has closed down?

Keyzha's service was really CMI during my last visit months ago, thus never came back ever since. However there was once a very hot petite (face 8.5, body 8.5) once served me but don't willing to do special. It really surprised me....

Bro care to share where is this Pleasure Massage? Judging from pricing, 200k more for a HJ, 500k more for FJ. Not sure how is the service and the environment, is it better than those in UTAMA?

Who knows,i may just doze off again in the theater,hehehe... (the gods mentioned here actually means deities and each of them actually have their own stories in the Chinese folklore)

Enjoy the movie,but don't forget NOT TO buy their drinks and popcorns/sandwiches....hehehe....

I tink u made yr movie posting look so detail-interesting tat others may easily tht it's a good movie. Luckily u put up a warning b4 hand.

Shouldn't have any issues at all; in fact, this upcoming weekend should be quieter than usual because all the touristy-inclined families will have had their fill of Batam over the recently ended long weekend.

Yeah, Keyzha was nothing to shout about but I went there quite a few times to patronize this super chio 19yo SSYT. She was friendly but in terms of services provided, it really sucked (pun not intended because there was no BBBJ, not even BJ). But in terms of sheer beauty and utter nubile youthfulness, it was an adequate trade-off IMO.

For Pleasure Massage, I'm pretty damn sure that the gal will not be getting the full top-up (200k for HJ & 500k for FJ); I would take a guess and say that they only pocket 50%. Hence, it might be a win-win situation if one takes the "O" package and thereafter have a private negotiation session with the gal. Eg if you offer her 150k for HJ, you pay 50k less than the published rate and she makes 50k more. You happy, she happy and she might wank you off with more gusto.

I have PM-ed you the location of Pleasure Massage.
