Thank you for sharing.
A bad news from my side, when i returned back to Singapore from Batam after the auntie/uncle Batam trip, i received a letter from OCBC that they have terminated my structured deposit which gives me 2.05% per year after 2.5 years (which is suppose to last 6 years and 3.5 years more to go). So went to withdraw my deposit there few days ago and close the that account. Maybank act fast too, immediately the next day after i receive that letter, they downsize their fix deposit interest from 2% (or 2.1%) to 1.88%, so i am kind of stuck,hehehe...
HSBC's endowment only for people under 65, hence i am giving it a miss for now.
Anyway, i am still keeping a close look out as of now,hehehe...

Currently, i notice at least 2 advertisement with FREE horizon ferry coupons there (to be given away) but nobody is picking it up,hehehe...then again, it expires end of Oct and another on end of Nov.
I am still waiting for my uncle to pass some Dec or Jan coupons to me tho. Dont intend to buy anymore as why pay when i can get it for FREE,hehehe...i have another group trip on Nov and Dec respectively. Jan 2020 would need to bring my parents for shopping in Batam just before CNY2020 arrive.

I brought my auntie (my mum's sister) and my mum to go there to eat their chicken wing, the price is actually S$0.10 to S$0.20 more expensive (on average) as compare to Singapore. Thats according to my mum and auntie.
After my Batam trip with those aunties and uncles last week, i learned one small thing. Its not just about the price when it comes good tasting food, its also more about how the chef cooks the food. Well, one of the uncle was a chef (curry rice), the other one who owns several coffee shops too. Hence i begin to see things from a different perspective.
Next trip with these group of uncles and aunties, i shall bring them to the chicken wing shop to test it out. And see what they commented.
By the way, they all likes the Meximo Pub noodles. Maybe if there is a chance to see you coming to Batam, maybe can bring you there to test the noodles too. Meantime, if you happen to be at A2 food court, do feel free to try the Bak Chok noodles inside A2 food court. May not be as good as Bai Long or Meximo noodle, but would make do and beats quite a handful of noodle shop in that area,hehehe...
Enjoy!

These are the people, usually with the MOST complain when they go to Batam. Much often, Batam isnt a suitable place for them to tour around. Probably just a place for them to kill some time.
