Bro Cerberus, don't feel bad. This is normal as Batam is close to Sg and a lot of kiasu cultures being brought to here! Very normal.
Some regular here, like me really share same sentiment, especially public holidays, all the bros flooded Btm. All the girls being booked right immediately after the doors open!
Imagine that!
After saying these, I think Batam is more for laojiao and those with "contact".
Those girls also funny, don't know really for money or for joys.
