I'm sorry to interrupt this,but i can't help wondering why your friend do not wish to drop himself off at Sekupang Ferry Terminal which is abt 10 mins or less from KTM resort but instead wish to drop at Harbour Bay ferry terminal which is about 40 min drive to KTM resort?
Cost of travelling from harbour Bay to KTM resort will be around 100k to go and another 100k plus to come back.(amt can be higher) The time used to travel is also about 40 mins to go and another about 40 mins to come back.(longer if there is a jam)

You are probably right,bro....tho 10k ojek might be small,but if not careful may end up with 110k ojek (100k comm + 10k ojek)...or maybe more?

Woah! 5 mins drive from HB to Formosa already cost an average bargained price of 30k...40 mins from HB to KTM for 100k i believe should be the lowest price on average.
To come back from KTM to HB would be the real challenge,hehehe...

The taxi uncle will earn 100k from your total sum so if mamasan quote 800k, driver took 100 k , actual price is only 700k . In either case try to lower the amount for the benefit of future bros going to batam. Control the rate. Nevertheless we cant outbid the rich ones whom willing to pay $200 for the syt but at least we does what it could

Totally agree with you,bro...walking does makes one understand the place better and on top of it,gives one more confidence on that place too.
And double thumbs up for choosing to bargain for a good cause!

Distance actually shorter,trust me...the next time you try to walk to Gold Bird from Formosa again,the time used will be much shorter becos you have been there once before and you will also realise the real distance is actually shorter than you expected,hehehe...
