Kudos to Nono and all the bros who posted FRs here. Decide to take my virgin trip to Batam (3-4 Aug). Here's my FR.

First Mistake
Searched google and booked ferry tickets via directferries website. Thought its like booking bus to KL. Turn out to be a BAD mistake. This is a euro company. After you booked, this is a booking with them only. They will still have to contact the ferry company and then confirm it usually within 24-48 hrs if within europe. I booked wednesday for ferry at 10am sat. Confirmation arrived only on sat afternoon 3pm !!!. Can't cancel by email. Cancellation only applies to ticket worth 35 euros or more. Totally screwed up. On friday morning, after learning my lesson, I booked directly via Horizon website. Just follow instructions and its pretty smooth. Ferry ride smooth and easy.

Second Mistake
After landing, decided to call Gojek per some advise I read somewhere. Turn out they can't pick you up from the ferry terminal and not even 1 or 2 roads outside. Finally bite the bullet, cancel gojek and take a cab to Formosa for 30k. 30k is about 3 SGD. Not worth the time to quibble about it.

Hotel
Made it to Formosa Hotel. The whole building is 4 storey high. 4th floor is Alishan KTV (good point here - describe more later) and King's massage. When you first walk in, there is a musty smell to the whole hotel even at counter area. As your nose gets used to it, you won't smell it after a while. I think it permeates the entire hotel. I might want to stay at a newer / nicer / (more expensive) place. Still Formosa Hotel is a good choice. Easy walking distance to Nagoya Hill shopping mall which has pretty much everything you need. So went there for lunch, pickup some toiletries that I missed (mouth wash, good smell body wash and some mints). If you gonna bath together with the ladies, a good smelling body wash helps.

Getting Down to Business
At this point, its approx 1am. Decide to do the walking tour per map posted by Nono. Below is my view of the joints.
Happy 8 - easy to find. There's a dude sitting outside who wave you over as you approach 10m of the joint lol. Went it, he called a big size mami. She came over looking bored, husstle the girls into the fishtank (similar to Geylang fishtank). Approximately 12-15 girls. Most CMI. Only 2-3 is a possible. You sit at the high chairs provided and scan until song song. Conversation basically goes like this:

Mami: Sit down.. take your time. Choose one.
Me: How much for the girl(s)?
Mami: Which one? Different girl different price.
Me: (scan the room looking lost)...
Mami: You come alone? Walking? Where you stay?
Me: Yes. I walk here. From Formosa Hotel.
Mami: Ok.. 1st one (starting on the left) 1.2m, 2nd one 1.3m, 3rd one 1.3m, 4th one 1.2m ....
after a while ...
Me: Ok thank you. I will go look and if i want i come back take the green one.
Mami: Ok.

Segar (also known as new berry) - Walk to Segar 3 streets down. Went in, say hi to mami who hustle the girls together. Same/similar conversation above. Total 4 girls. Mami said she had 25 girls all booked. I looked impressed (at the lie). Saw 1 possible.

Memory - can't find the place. Not sure if still around.
Golden Bird (Sedona) - can't find the place either. Went to Sambal Mentah Bude Ida - look around. Don't see anything that looked liked it.

At this time its about 3pm and after romping around the street in the hot sun, decided to call a gojek to Diamond Mall to look for Bunga.

Bunga - can't find the place either. Saw a Sakura Massage. Walk in, there is no girls. Got an album the 'papi' can called. Decide not to trust photos. So left.

Kupu Kupu - Decided to walk to MM / Indah2. Found Kupu2 on the way. Went in, decent amount of girls approximately 8-10 girls. Decided to pick one. Ask to be sent to hotel at 6. Price 1.3m. Continue to walk as my buddy hasn't found his.

Havana - Saw Havana on road to MM/Indah2. Went 2. 2 girls left. I wanted one of them but too bad I already booked one. Left. Then 2 ojeks hanging outside insisted to show us another place. So went riding on ojek. Didn't feel too dangerous as there are plenty of ppl at the roadside. Ended up in M31 (right next to M30) which is right next to Morena Pub. Not sure if this is what folks referred to as MM. Think not. At M31, there was a solid amount of girls approx. 25-30 girls. My buddy picked one. Started 1.3m bargained to 1.4m. Likely due to having to pay off the ojek drivers. Didn't push too hard. Mami offered one to me sayomg this one is only 17. She was young pretty fair and I was very tempted but I already booked one lol. Sigh.

With both of us picked, we ojek back to hotel. Without change and since we are feeling good, gave the ojek 50k.

Business
Right on time at 6pm, the room bell rang and outside stood a shorter-than-i-remember school girl lol. She was wearing a white shirt and sweat pants. Turn out she was 18 turning 19 the next day. I thought she's was 23 or so. After some icebreaking efforts, the session turn out great. 1st time she experience female orgasm. She was so shocked. Turn out she wasn't very experienced. I ask her if she want another one. She nodded. Off we went. 2nd round either took longer or i m getting old and tired lol. This time she is bolder... saying stuff like 'omg... just like that just like that'... then after a long while a small gasp and and instant withdrawal / scramble away from my tongue lol. She was amazed. Then I had my shot. She then declared I am the best. rofl. This of course, rubs an old man's ego. Just this is worth the money.

She didn't want to go out. Order some macd. Told me her birthday tomorrow. I went downstairs bought her a cake. She was over the moon. She will take it back and share it with her friends and mom. We went a 2nd round which was milder. Only I had a shot. Then I decided to send her back and not have her stay overnight because I am not done with my virgin trip.

Morena Pub - THIRD Mistake
At 10, got dress and gojek to Morena Pub. 100k entrance fee. Hmm.. fine. Went in and was told that to sit down, I need to blow 1m minimum because of some star from Jakarta is here. Decided against this. I wanted to have a beer and check out the place but if minimum is 1m then no. So walked out. Might be fine for 3-4 guys. Maybe just bad luck on that day with a 'Star' coming.

KTV
At first wanted to try M1/2 KTV but too tired to look for it. So decided on Alishan KTV. Went to 4th floor, waiter ask if want a room or hall. Decided to look at the hall. Didn't see too many girls and wasn't very enticing. So decided on a room. Papi was very friendly. So he started quoting the room so I say a small room will do. He recommend the medium room. So I said no.. think small will do for two of us... but he say no charge for the medium room. Its on him. lol. Ok. So enquire about the price. 400k for 12 cans of beer + fruits + 2 bowls of nuts. 500k sitting fee per girl. All in paid 1.4m for 2 girls and 12 cans of beer. So if 2 person, its 700k each. Really very very reasonable. There was approx. 25-30 girls. Half can't make it. The other half are ok. No clear winner. So decided to pick a fair one who is showing her midriff. Turn out she is 21 years old from Sulewasi. Wow... Spend the evening singing songs to each other. Not a lot of raba raba. Wasn't sure if it was fine or the girls were ok with it.

Foreplay - FORTH Mistake
Ended the KTV session when beer rang out. I ended the session as I wasn't done exploring Batam. Took a gojek to Foreplay. Free entry. Went in.. wow this place is crowded at 2pm. Saw the end of the 'fashion show'. Girls was wearing some sort of 1950 bikini uniform... i.e. not the skimpy kind. They were doing cat walks and cameras were going off. Wow didn't know they allow cameras. No one push me for a drink. So i just stood around and watch for a while. Like one of the FR said, DJ was playing head shaking music. Place is mostly filled with guys. There were a few freelancers around but urgh.. they are ugly. Probably good ones taken by 2pm. You can clearly see some of the guys were high on drugs with incessant shaking of heads while their buddies were standing around pouring bourbons down each other's throat. Got myself a beer and stand around for a while and see what happens. Heineken was 95k. Relatively expensive but nothing to quibble about. With the club at 80% guys 15% freelancers 5% tourists looking as lost as I was, its time to leave. So walk the rest of the NED street. Most of the pubs are dead. Decided to call it a night.

Next day
Decided to try Wechat - booked a 2 hrs massage after breakfast. She showed up promptly. She ask 1 or 2 hrs. Decided 2 hrs after the previous night drinking. This was a clean massage. I think i fell asleep half the time. lol. When its done, I looked at the time and really 2 hrs has elapsed. SO paid ehr 300k. The is clean massage. Went to Nagoya mall for lunch. After that decide whether to do a 1hr massage with happy ending or just wait around drinking coffee. Decided on messing around with wechat/michat. Michat you get a lot of greetings. Most are not my type. Grab a taxi to ferry terminal. 60k from the mall. Had some trouble telling the gojek where to pickup. Decide not to quibble about 6 bucks.

Overall a fun trip. Will probably go again in a month or two's time. Hopefully this FR helps out some noobie bros just like many past FRs had helped me out.
