Your are welcome. Since this is a private message (aka PM), i have chose to reply you in public forum thread censoring off your nick for privacy reason. As for why i reply in public instead of using PM, well...your question is rather general which may deem for some discussion out in the open. Due to time factor,i make it a point not to reply to all my PMs too,thats mainly becos i have too many of them. On top of that, there's also word limitation on PM-ing too.

Just a note tho, while i compile information in the forum, i mainly use it for my own reference. When someone asked a repeated question, myself and maybe other bros here could easily redirect him/her to the information i compiled (trouble-maker/s and clone/s otherwise of course).

Or the least, there is a correct direction for someone who ask to seek for himself the answer, rather than getting all smash up just from "asking a question" (i was such victim before,hehehe..). It can be irritating to hear repeated question/s for many readers here and answer/s to many basic repeated question/s were usually buried deep down inside a forum thread after some time (this thread really move fast).

The solution, which is why nono1973 signature link was created.

*everytime i make a post in this thread, i am indirectly giving answer/s to newbie becos of my signature link that comes with it,hehehe..

Am planning a playventure in a few weeks, and after finding this forum I want to try batam.
On my own thought, I would just say Batam is still worth going to, tho not as worthy if compared to 15 to 25 years ago. My reason for saying that would be comparing failure rate versus success rate over getting a good time. In US, Thailand, Europe or perhaps other parts of Asia, the damage would usually be greater than Batam (calculating total cost of the trip to each place) if its gonna end with a fail. In other word, it boils down to how many fail can one afford to make in other countries versus Batam. The same amount of resources i used in other countries, i can fail more times in Batam.

(sorry,i may sound a bit pessimistic but its essential for me as most of my success were built on failure,and each fail comes with a price)

As for if one would have a good time eventually lies mainly on how well if one could blend into their culture and if the scene is suitable for those who are there. Imagine this, if you fail thrice or more in Batam, you probably would not like to step into it to waste time again,hehehe...

My usual saying goes like that, keep expectation low. i do that in all other countries i visited, even in Japan,hehehe...most time, i advise friends i brought to Batam to cut their expectation by at least half.

Try at least a 3D2N trip there and you might know more than you read here. Like i mentioned earlier, Batam is one of the lowest in terms of pricing for a total trip cost comparing with countries you mentioned (if you are from Singapore). I believe most Singaporean could afford those fail.

Enjoy!

Passport data of arrivals and departures is never shared among countries. However, airlines will share the passengers data as required by aviation law. Leave by passport A and enter by passport B without being noticed is only possible through non-registered, non commercial transport. E.g walk through causeway or private driving.

Each country will exercise its own discretion dealing with people who use multiple passports.

I agreed with this point. Its just like same S$1 can be use to buy more things in Batam as compared to Singapore. Which is why the S$5 survivor challenge which i took in past while in Batam has shown me what i have missed.

In my next few trips to batam, i am more likely to spend more time in the developer's office. I already went to a few in my last trip and gather quite a handful amount of information and one of those information involved the people who would be managing the condo's facilities.

Thanks, thanks...yea, i notice some land house roof top got those satellite dish,hehehe...but i never see solar panel in Batam before.


I now need to consider buying a studio unit with balcony and also to watch out for the size of its balcony. The solar panel wont be too big tho and the size i plan to bring in were unlikely able to power up appliances such as air-con and refrigerator. But for television,some simple household appliances and computers, shouldnt be a problem. Hehehe...i wont be turning on air-con thru out the day,round the clock either.

Solve the constant black out issue too. I am not using apartment block space, but my own living space (inside balcony) to fit the solar panel, hence i dont plan to seek the condo's management's approval.

The electrical bill and apartment management cost in Batam condominium is really scary. Save here ,save there, might still need to fork out about 2.5 juta per month and that amount of money already can use to rent a small no-window unit in Lai Lai apartment already.

Thank you for sharing.

Water rationing i hear of it before. One taxi driver every once told me before, his water tap at home actually came out air instead of water. Not so much of a problem for me.

I used to stay in Jakarta for a bit as a kid before, those days where the tap came out clear water on the bath tub but after being filled up to about half, the water was actually dark greenish in color. So dark that when you drop a 50 rupiah coin into it, you will unlikely be able to find it. After leaving the bath tub of water for a day or 2 unattended, i was able to see one or 2 worms crawling out from it. And i have to use those greenish water to shower myself EVERYDAY!

This has left me a very deep impression back then. So the people staying with me uses bottled mineral water to cook their food and for drinking. Over the many years, Indonesia water system has made tremendous improvement, but their electricity supply system still almost the same. I still see some black-outs in Batam every once a blue moon (no less than a dozen time over my 5 years in Batam).

You mean there are electricity rationing in Batam?

If thats the case, there may be a problem...haiz...a lot of things cant go w/o electricity (fridge etc) and a diesel power-ed generator definitely cannot fit into a studio unit.

I believe most apartment condo should have a back up generator tho.

From all the aspect i look at Batam's property on the whole, be it any brand new condo apartment or a new landed property, give them say about 10 years, the place would be pretty much quite rundown. My view on the whole is much wider after the discussion (info) and am looking at the buying of apartment more differently.

I should be able to ask the property agent/s and the developer/s better questions in my upcoming trip to Batam. Being a 1st time Batam would-be property buyer, most time when i see them also dont know what kind/type of key question to ask.

Sincerely thank you all.

10300/SGD ??!!

Now, this is the kind of time where Singapore money changer at Raffles place Arcade mall or Chinatown area would have given a better than Batam rate. Otherwise, under normal days, Batam money changer would have offer better exchange rates.

Yes, i notice that many Indonesians were talking about having super duper ultra long weekends from 1st June onward until 9th June 2019 hence i am NOT expecting the richer girls in Batam to be back until after 10th June 2019 tho,hehehe..

I definitely wont be there during those time tho,hehehe...becos its too crowded and lesser girls to choose from.
