In my perspective,depending which massage shops you visit,6.5 out of 10 massage places does FJ.

Bargaining requires a smiling face and some level of persistency.

Controlling the big head over small head is a matter of self-control. Try the smaller massage shops behind Utama hotel 1st if you wish to start to learn how to bargain. 150k HJ and 250k FJ can be more easily bargained there. 100k HJ and 200 FJ is also possible there but may pose a challenge.

If you can successfully make it 100k hj and 200k FJ in the Utama area of Massage shops,then you can move on to the next level. Massage places surrounding Formosa area (and it includes Hotel massage as well in this case). In Formosa area ,even 150k HJ and 250 FJ may pose a big challenge for non-Bahasa speaking bros. 100k HJ and 200k FJ will be near impossible but it can still be done.

Of course, i am saying all the above if you wish to learn what you didnt know or what you arent good at. Marking up the price high to be bargained down were part of Indonesia business culture.
