Then you shouldn't have said the exchange rates are the same in Batam and in Singapore. Don't you know that the Rupiah is a very volatile currency. So far this year, the Rupiah had fluctuated with a difference of around Rp200 agsint the SGD in the exchange on a single day, let alone many years back which was worst.
