This one should help clarifies (i took it from the Harbour Front Ferry terminal custom area some time ago) :

You may also grab a copy of the above at the waiting area before one prepares himself to board the ferry to Batam (Harbour Bay). Free with no extra charge,hehehe...

Maybe she's walking back to her kost, not all girls live in the farm.

By the way, for those interested in ST, can have ST session with happy8 girls at level 2 for 250-500k depending on your negotiation skill and choice of girl. Level 2 consist of 8-10 cubical with bed and basic washing facilities attached. No shower though .They are open until 12am and is one of the joint in batam with the most left over girls. For those that are single and feeling horny after a drink at Windsor, this could be your choice instead of booking girls from ktv which cost 1.6 juta for overnight and worst is that these girls are usually very selective of their customers.

Gold bird and new berry usually closed before 8pm. (Out of stock)

Permata indah is another place to go as it actually operate as a ktv at night..

Or maybe she just goes to top up at Lucky Plaza?
Or maybe she just goes to buy something to drink at Siang Malam?
Or maybe simply she's doing her private business without expecting she's under observation...
I am sure she could not imagine so many people is speculating on what she did exactly on that afternoon (or night).

Agreed with you on being realistic. In this thread,many bro's experience surpass myself many fold and i am still at the stage of learning. (i am not being modest/humble when i say this nor am i showing off becos it is a fact i believe in)

Good for someone who is being stalked too. In general,Hotels like Biz,Formosa and Da Vienna were safe enough. Enough as in they have enough juice to keep some of my girls and people i didnt like at bay,hehehe...

I prefer Formosa tho,which gives me Nick Fury or Dr X abilities to "see" literally nearly everyone within the public premises (in one of my much earlier summary,my booking girl walked out of my room when i am not in the hotel room? I queried her),hehehe...i hope to one day get that ability in Da Vienna and Biz. (nope,i wont be elaborating this part)

The moment you leave the stairs, you will have to walk all the way down to the ground floor because all respective floor doors are one-way lock. That is can get out from the floor corridor but cannot come in. This is to prevent intruders from hiding in the stairs area to wait for the right timing to re-enter the respective floor.

iHotel 4 stars,hence it is not in my to-stay-list but their security is definitely 4 stars with some good thinking. 4 star hotel mean,everything in it,more expensive. Room however isnt an issue tho. Being convenient for me to move around is important.

Hmm...not a very convenient way. Its good to note down which hotel uses such security features so whenever there is a group trip,i can try to make sure everyone stays on the same floor or at worse scenario,just a floor away,hehehe...

Thank you for sharing.

Oh? The ben chiong have move their operations there liao ?

[SibeiNew]

Going for solo trip on the 29th for 2D1N.

Very likely to try Formosa Hotel(unless suay suay before Labour day all tio book)

Any bros going there that day wanna link up for lunch/dinner do contact me via PM.

My expensive Chinese driver (500k full day) will also be picking me up with his trusty Avanza. IF need can also carpool the cost with me but maximum of 3 guys 3 ceweks in the car(excluding driver)

He only knows the way for the basic 4 joints that I usually go(family driver not joint employed) so if anywhere else need to provide address for him especially massage parlors.

I will mostly likely nua in the room and with my cewek(she wants to give me bahasa lesson) , also prepared my VGA cable and laptop with loads of movies to spent a quiet day there.

[Bigbird00]

Not bad FX i got yesterday 9750 opp Nagoya Plaza Hotel.

BTW Do you guys come across pretty Indon girls in thier 20s but have a little fine hair "moustache" above the lip. Are you guys ok with it or No go?

I find it quite "distracting" and in a dilemma! lol
