I dont have anymore tips on Ramadan,except to avoid the 1st 3 days,mid 3 days and the final 3 days. I kiasu-man,even beginning of Hari raya 1st 7 days i will try to avoid too.
I will avoid smoking and eating openly in open unconcealed public places.
I will not talk loudly or play around like a little kid in public places
For pubs,discos and clubs,i am not familiar with it and according to what i have read in the old thread,i can only know the ACTUAL details when i have physical reach there by calling them directly. Otherwise i wait here in this thread for someone who are there on before those dates to provide some detailed information (but info may change from time to time becos no one will know the exact time of their raids).
And below is what i have collected on Ramadan over the years :

Do take care not to lose your wallets n petty thieves are around out to "earn for Hari Raya". Police are more on the look out for money as well.
DONT DO DRUGS AS THIS IS THE MOST ACTIVE TIME FOR THE POLICE LOOKING FOR MONEY.
Gals will open their mouth bigger for money as well.

A good piece of information for the Ramadan month.

I think i must have seen millions of photos by now from some of the Batam bros i linked up with. Nah,i dont plan to start a new thread at the link/photo exchange plaza...i will stay in this thread to collect and perhaps share some info instead. There are just too many reasons why i choose not to do what i feel isnt right,not gonna elaborate as everyone has a different views.

misLeading and misReading is just 1 letter apart. Those who fancy misReading especially from misReading between the lines of my words,i simply ignore them. I understand my objectives in this thread well,so i am not wasting the slightest bit of my time on them.

I was hoping it isnt going to be like Morena....but i was wrong... *sob*
It was a Morena branch.
And by the way,it was a salon,and i was tempted to have my hair cut there. But no one seems interested to give me one,hehehe...

The place is really low-end. Girls are young and pretty, but the place sketchy. It may be good for a cheap release. 500 for ST readily down to 400 without much negotiation effort.

While i was reading your message,there's already a handful of PMs coming my way,hehehe...and i have the honor to see more than a dozen girls on the 2nd floor sleeping in their own floor mattress bed on a faithful afternoon.

For beginners,i often use Formosa Hotel.(its works like a pre-school Hotel for me,hehehe...) Which is more centralize towards most overnight booking joint,massage and night entertainment places. (i do understand i am late replying to this post and you have probably returned from your trip) And for intermediate players any hotels will work just as good (even Montigo Resort,KTM resort etc).

Within 5 mins walking distance,2 booking joint,New Berry and Happy 8 (now can add one more Princess salon ST joint which is same building as Happy 8).
Within 10 mins walking distance,Gold Bird and Moonlight
Within 15mins walking distance (maybe 20 mins),almost every booking joint in Batam,which includes Memory,Permata Indah,MM,Indah 2,Bunga etc.

Turn right from Formosa Hotel front door,there is Lucky Plaza. Walk all the way down for less than 5 mins until you see Grand Nagoya Hotel and there is a zhi char store (New Singa Malam Sea food) selling sea food quite cheap. You will also pass by Mickey Mouse Bak Kut Teh which is 30secs away from the store.

No doubt will be Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal if your plan to Batam were to cheong. You can still come from other ferry terminal,but the distance will be longer where most of the fun were situated.

Due to Mickey Mouse Bak Kut Teh's popularity,they have raise their prices by about 20% since i started Batam in the beginning of 2014. Some of Shuang Hong Bak Kut teh was good,some really cannot make it.
The one at Astro Hotel coffee shop were the better one among the rest,the one at Citywalk one were a little too salty and they closes down some time ago (they may have moved). The one at Nagoya Hill Mall one puts their meat in the freezer for too long and well,its taste were inconsistent. a2 Food court Bak Kut Teh also not bad. Harbour Bay ferry terminal used to have a pretty good one,but i think it has wind up (not sure why). Batam worst Bak Kut Teh by my own definition after trying a handful of them is at Sinar Bulan Food court,ground floor of Sinar Bulan Hotel opposite Formosa. Actually Indo Rasa Food court Bak Kut Teh also not bad.
Oh,i also realize recently,the most expensive Bak Kut Teh is from Mickey Mouse. I would say,good for a one time novelty try,hehehe... (MAYBE becos they stop pouring customer's leftover soup back to the main pot,"cost" went up,so they increase price,hehehe...*joking only*)
