(You are probably in Batam by the time this is being posted)

Teach him how to go to Happy 8 (behind Center Point,almost directly 12 o'clock opposite Prima Asia Hotel),Hawaii KTV (same block as S Hotel,just walk round the block starting from right side of S hotel entrance),Permata Indah (near Windsor Food Court,10 o'clock opposite Hai Hai 2 hotel) and Gold Bird(around Lai Lai Hotel) ,it will benefit both you and him in the long run.

Check the maps of the hotels stated that i have posted before for details.

HDMi cable in most HP shops selling at 40k to 60k each after bargaining.I bought quite a few back to Sillypore to sell around S$10 to S$12 each,hehehe...most sillypore shops selling S$16+.

Finding someone that understands english is almost impossible , got unlucky with a drunk/sleepy bluebird driver that speeds on the highway and tries to chop me on fares by bringing me to wrong places or re-route a bigger route. Worst part when I tried to roam the streets , once stepped out of the hotel boundaries is zero security/law , got approached by groups of homeless men trying to get money from me , almost get robbed by speeding motorcyclist that just snaps at my bag. Witnessing riots with flying glass bottles and lastly police officers that just barged into my room giving excuse of raiding PRC sex workers.(apparently lots of them stays in the same 4* hotel) but thankfully they did not plant drugs and extort me.

i was on a tour group as a kid,we pass by a small village and were taking some photos from our bus window,all of a sudden the villagers there (i dont know if its east or west java) angrily overturn the bus with me in it.... *sob*

During army time,as i have said it before i was a boatman,the indonesia coastal guard was police (or army officers) by day,pirate when sunset. Hence till today,everytime i visit indonesia,the most fearsome people in indonesia to me were not its people,but its authorities.

Chatting everyday with the cewek I'm booking this coming trip is improving my basic bahasa haha , I'm in a love-hate relationship with google translator now

Not a problem at all. I dont have an Indo girl to talk to from Sillypore to Batam,hence my bahasa relatively remain quite stagnant over the last 2 years. Remember,i dont have wechat/watsapp etc or any internet multi-media communication tools like MSN/Face book etc nor do i keep contact numbers of indo girls on my mobile phone.

The only chance i get to communicate with indo girl/s more were when i book them for overnight whenever i am in Batam.

Have a good and enjoyable trip,bro.

Now try to walk in perimeter of the block in S Hotel and turn RIGHT when you reach a corner to turn,after that continue to walk straight and you should reach Hawaii KTV.

This 1 veri detail hw get to go Hawaii kraoke.
