Almost done... But I've been advised by my local friends to not be too open on who owns it as everyone will want a slice of the pie once they know the owner is Singaporean. Cause u know lah we carrot head mah.

Means Telkomsel restrict you to redeem 1x for the cheapest/free ticket, then BookMyShow restrict you to only 1 promo claim. There goes my dream of free movies every trip.

Hmm...true,true. The other promo will need 200 points for a free ticket,which means a juta top up.

Definitely,hehehe...the most suitable for yourself will always be the best. I am more concern with the staff's abilities to solve my problem/s if i ever encounter one and of course, cheaper convenient amenities. Safety has also been 1 of my main concern.

Example,Da vienna is a good hotel but its massage is ultra expensive,but Hana is cheaper but their surrounding massage around the hotel's 1 to 2 min radius-distance is cheaper. Since massage is one of the entertainment that i am looking for in Batam.

A good Wifi and Lan connection is always good to have hence i often bookmarked certain good rooms in certain hotel/s.

You did. Remember you mentioned to me before that some points can be use to claim internet data via apps? I simple modify and tweet it a bit from your idea and put some effort into looking at what i need for myself in Batam. Glad i found something that suits me, hence all the sharing here now.

Someone shared something here,i modify it to make it suit me when i am in Batam,so i can enjoy batam better. Not follow blindly,hehehe...

Cant be help,the better their business,the higher chance they will increase their price. These practically applies to most business entities in Batam. The jump of price can be as fast as one month. So I assume they have good business and didn't want mine,hehehe...

I hear Relax massage also increase their price too. But i didnt confirm its pricing,so i dont know the exact amount yet. My friend told me it hits the 100k mark already.

I am talking about calling from Singapore to Batam.

Arent you talking about the fire and ice special service? You mentioned it as 1 out of 2 but i prefer to drag your words to 1 out the 5 in Batam. So that in order for newbie reader/s who wish to find the right place,they will need to try out at least a few of the 5 before they could possibly get to the right place.

Depending on their luck too as I dont enjoy spoonfeeding. But if they share their experience,i might slowly help them shortlist to the right target.

Yes,i think so. My most suitable theater is often Harbour Bay Blitz theater.

If i go for late night movie,those theaters like BCS and Nagoya Hill Mall are in higher floors,walking down from those theaters can be a pain. (no escalator and lifts were often full). I dont exactly have a good sense of direction,hehehe...i am comparing getting down to the ground floor from Harbour Bay's Blitz ,comparing with other theaters in Batam. And I am often lost,hehehe...

Thank you for keeping my record of important postings. There are more than just what I have written before and I don't think I wish to repeat the whole essay-writings on Ramadan all over again,hehehe...so here's my experience on it taken from my 29th Batam trip summary last year (during Ramadan 2016 month) which I am cross-referencing for my upcoming Batam Ramadan trip 2017 (3rd one),hehehe...

I am still learning and my own summaries are helping me. Adding the link from your quote above and the below is my very own version of complete Ramadan info which I gather.

More info should be able to be added after my Ramadan 2017 trip,hehehe...

(CNY and Ramadan month were the only time Batam can be quite different)

a. All booking joints were open as per normal during Ramadan period,in fact all entertainment places were open for business. But they open late and when i mean late,it means as late as after 6pm and closes earlier than usual. (ok,thats what most people would already know)

b. Now when it comes to booking joints and massage shops. Remember i said this before,as the days draws closer to Hari Raya (end of Ramadan),girls will become lesser and lesser as they will gradually go back to their hometown. 1st week of Ramadan,most likely 80% of total Batam working girl left,2nd week lesser and so on for the 3rd week until it reaches around 40% to 50%. This part,i am sure most would already read before in my earlier post/s,so nothing new again.

Do note that some working girls DO NOT go back to hometown due to the high air fare cost.(while some couldnt due to contract) They rather remits the air fare money back to hometown for their families instead.

c. All booking joint,even some massage places were still operating and entry were by the back door. In fact,all booking joints in Batam were opened but entry only via back door.Again,everyone knows that. But how to gain access to the back door is what not being shared here and some back doors take about 5 mins walk. Knocking on their front door definitely wont get them to open shop. And how do i find their back door so that i knocked on the right door?

Every booking joint will surely have some neighbours,some of them even sit outside the booking joint smoking,TCSS in group etc etc.Yes approach any of them,ask them how to go in and i was then shown the back door,hehehe...

3. Booking joints girls,the quality and quantity :

I went to 90% of the Batam booking joint more than once,all of them entry via back doors. Girls were however limited in each different timing.I even step into their 2nd floor and 3rd floor sleeping quarters,hehehe...so here's what i found out...

a. At around 12pm to 1.30pm ,there was an average 5 to 15 girls in each booking joint but...when i step into their sleeping quarters,there was like another 5 to 15 girls (if not more) who were sleeping,resting,eating etc but none were getting ready to work. My analysis is,each booking joint has many girls,but not all of them are working.

b. Got so many girls but its like around 60% not working and sleeping on an early noon,why? Simple reason,they were fasting. And they only appears after their fasting ends. This i am sure no one ever mention in any Batam threads in the forum,not even in the Balai one.

c. Some of the girls were fasting,some didnt. Those who werent fasting came out to work as the 1st batch,after the fasting is over around 6pm.After that came the 2nd batch. So all in all,there was 2 group of girls in booking joints.

d. I gathered there should be 2 batches of girls,each batch has their own "cream". Be sure to grab them fast or they will be gone soon especially on weekends. But if there is no cream of the crowd on the 1st batch,come back at about 6pm for the 2nd batch.

Note : There were also girls who fast and yet working,do forgive them if they need to leave early the next morning or if they cant eat together or go walk walk out of the hotel together with you.

4. Girls playing the runaway game during Ramadan. Yes,i see some girls already planning to runaway from their customers (especially those they didnt like). I have not met one which i paid for tho,however i have girls telling me that they will be citing the reason becos of Ramadan and they need to pray etc etc. Visit the more established joints to prevent such from happening and always keep the name card ready. I can however see OKTs were a little more lenient towards girls during Ramadan.

5. If one wish to see all the girls in the booking joint,you will have to pay a visit to the same joint in 2 different timing,at around 1230pm and 6pm. But do keep in mind if you visit at a timing of 6pm,the better 1230pm girls would already have been taken by others.

6. In certain more popular joints,many girls has already been pre-booked when we visited. So that means there were some more-intelligent regular bros who came prepared.

7. In Ramadan,everything seems to be normalize after 8pm but back to fasting-mode when fasting time starts on the wee hours of the morning. This reminds me of the movie Silent Hill,hehehe...

8. Its afterall a long school holiday with the combination of Ramadan month. Batam was crowded by religious and social organization from Sillypore (especially during weekends). So most of the main crowd comes from this group of people rather than cheongsters. Many foreign Indians there too,but the girls appear not to like them very much and a handful even planned to "run" halfway thru their overnight deals. So when i dont belong to the Sillypore foreign worker group,my choice were plentiful this Ramadan.

9. My entertainment bill -

Overnight girl = 800k x 2 nights (tips 100k/night) - 3pm onward to next morning 9am-10am

Massage + FJ at Kings = 81k + 300k (in-house)

Massage + HJ at Kings = 90k + 150k and 90k + 200k (in-room)

Massage + FJ (and HJ) at elsewhere by indo Chinese = 100k + 300k (fj) and 100k + 150k (hj)

10. The highlight of my trip :

a. Getting to do a little more in-depth research on the booking joint/s and massage cheong scene in Batam during Ramadan for my next Ramadan trip.

b. Gather a group of 7 boys and girls to watch porn in a hotel room together. There's nothing great about this one,but well,i didnt reveal what kind of porn we were all watching and THAT is the "great" part.

c. Having the entire 2 shifts of massage girls coming to my room,hehehe...different timing of course.

d. Getting to the living quarters of the girls in overnight booking joints as well as non-overnight booking joint.

e. Braving thru the back doors of entertainment places. i didnt know from the start that from front door walk to backdoor,sometime takes around 5 to 10 mins walk,hehehe...

f. I get to see more variety of girls during Ramadan than any other parts of the year,hehehe...not many girls during Ramadan in Batam? It was becos of the wrong timing,and not no girls.

g. The squirting booking girl was a bonus.

*sometime we were all so dependent on technologies which brought us convenience that we tends to forgot to use our common sense and basic instinct. (my shoes went muddy,parts of shirt during the day were wet etc)

Conclusion :

If i were to head to Batam next year during Ramadan on a weekday,i will not plan to go to Batam so early in the morning. I may even take the late afternoon ferry there after-office hour becos i KNOW,choices of girls were more at around 6pm Batam time and onward (the cream of the crowd may be gone during early noon tho). The girls were basically divided into 2 groups,the fasting group and the non-fasting group. OKTs seem to respect the decision the girls's made whether they choose to fast or not. Early noon,i see the non-fasting group,later noon (about 6pm) i see the fasting group.But i dont see all the fasting and non-fasting group of girls together as most of the earlier non-fasting group would already been taken up by walk-in customers.

I dont see 100% of all the girls at any one part of the day like the normal day,maybe only about 80% compare to the normal days. But whats left of the 80%,60% of them seems to be fasting and the other 40% not.(thats why the girls seems lesser) And lastly,not all girls fast thru out the whole Ramadan month.

Are there more girls during Ramadan than non-ramdan time in Batam? My answer is there are "seemingly" MORE girls during Ramadan time with even more girls hungry for my money than non-Ramadan time. Reason is supply becomes more,and the demand is much lesser and the girls (and OKTsss),they cannot hang up their original price to sell if the night is coming to an end soon (so,please bargain,hehehe...).

Once again,Ramadan is a little tricky and more of a direct opposite ways of looking for girls during the normal days (for me). I guess thats about all i wish to record down in my summary.

What I read and wrote were history, but history has taught me,hehehe...

[nono1973]

My add-on notes :

1. Most massage girls in massage places where they are required to wear uniform wont be wearing it thru out Ramadan month.

2. The booking girls I categorized under the fasting group above will need to leave early in the morning (i will let them go if they ask).

3. Night spots in Batam if opened for business will close earlier than usual during this time of the month.

4. This year 2017,i hear the Indo government is getting stricter than all other previous years base on a new article I read :

https://sbfsg.net/showpost.php?p=15956770&postcount=816

5. Many entertainment places like, Booking joint, Massage Palors etc will still run their business as if they aren't in operation.

6. Play safe,lower my vocal volume while in public places, be humble ,stay out of trouble and be courteous.

7. Its close to school holidays, so hotel rooms can be rather tricky. But most hotels near entertainment places should have room as Ramadan time is quieter, just be a bit more caution during a weekend.

...will be collecting more notes hereon.

Still so many places in Batam I have not been to before,hehehe...

Out of the entire 12 months, minus 1 month of fasting, you have 11 months to build your rolodex of performing FL. All booking joints + ktv + etc... can closed and I'll still be fucking cewek every night. And I only started building my rolodex since December.

If not for me having to standby in office, I should be on the last ferry to Batam tonight.
