Re: Batam Info Thread

hi bros here.. just thinking of making another solo trip there again. last time i went, dont know where to get gal, so asked a taxi driver to drive me around, sent me to a few discos, finally placed my $ on a late 20s gal for $350k rp. I think it was kind of expensive cos i heard usually around $250-270k rp? that was in august. is there price change? what is the norm price? where are these villages that u guys talked about? sorry i dont know any bahasa indonesian so cant really communicate with the drivers except tell them "char bo" or "girl", then they drove me off.. would appreciate if someone can give me a survival guide or maybe address. planning on staying at hotel 88 or utama this time. also what is the norm price now? and how to make sure they dont overcharge
