A few days diff ladies, or some bro extend the same lady for a few days, no issue ah. The city is already well known for its vice activity, people wont even bother.

But if you still worry, just stay in a higher end hotel, confirm no ppl will bother you.

Planet Holiday and Harmoni Suites are good value for money, I've stayed for a week in both hotels for a week on May and June, cost under $400 without breakfast.

If such Law would be enforced retroactively and penalties are cumulated, I would be going to be jailed for the rest of my life as soon as I pass the border.

If you plan to find a PRC in Batam, then you should prepare better your trip before sailing.
If you plan to bring a PRC to Batam, then in my country we say it is like "bringing sand to the beach".

Unless you go there during Fasting Month, otherwise there won't be any problem staying with a Muslim girl together there.

Thanks. I’m going for a week. My plan is to have my PRC gf with me on first two days then she will come back to SG on the third day morning. My Indonesian gf will come on the third day afternoon and stay with me until end of the week. I’m thinking of Hana Hotel which is a better location than Planet Holiday. When I check in, does the hotel need my PRC gf details? And on the third day when my Indonesian gf comes, do I have to register her details at the reception? I wouldn’t want the reception to mention anything about my PRC gf in front of my Indonesian gf you know.

I’m also thinking of renting a car and drive around in the day. Wonder if Hana Hotel would be a good choice.

just check in with your own first. after you get the key you can take you gf up stair. they will never ask you anything. because in batam they dont care who come to your room unlike singapore if friend want to go to your room have to report first to the receiption.

[dromad68]

Thanks. I was thinking if the same thing. Just go quietly but may be difficult to be stealth with the gf lugging along a suitcase.

In Bangkok it’s a mixed bag. Some hotels insist on registering the visitor, even asking to keep the visitor IC. I know it’s for our sake. They will call us to check if everything is ok before releasing the IC to the guest. Then there ar hotels which nag grudgingly and give you all sorts of warnings, even wanting to charge extra. And of course there are hotels that don’t care.

So I’m just wondering what it’s like in Batam. Don’t want to be caught in a situation like in Malaysia where you can be jailed for close proximity with an unmarried Muslim woman.

i don't think they care that much about visitors to their country. You can have your muslim friends unmarried checked into a hotel in batam and they don't really care either.
