Password is...the name of an Indo Chinese joint where only few here knew and in small letter.

I am doing some test and apologize for any inconvenience cause. If you can remember and crack that password, it will save you time to go down there to look see in person. And you will decide if she is 70% look-alike,hehehe...and she's from the place where you mention she is on your quote above.

*those who could see it, please keep it to yourself. Thank you.

Cheers!

Thank you. i go to Batam over the last 11 months for the purpose of this CNY month,hehehe...I wouldn't want to miss that.

And CNY Batam scene is relatively quite different from the normal day/months.

From a monger perspective, I am sure HCM will be a better scene to look forward to in comparison to being in Sillypore where everything else is going to cost more.

2 weeks after CNY is a blank period where most competition, most crazy spending would have die down. I may also be in Batam too. And 2 weeks after CNY 15th day where CNY ends ,would be roughly around one month from the CNY 1st and 2nd day. An entire different scene altogether.

Two CNY ago,most HJs cost 300k from some rundown massage shop and bargaining wasn't even an option. Normal days it only cost 100k-150k after bargaining, hehehe... this incident has help me understand Batam ever since. There are much to learn in every CNY trip,hehehe...

1. Lack of money changers, rates were also at its worst time of the year
Solution 1 : I can change in Sillypore (Chinatown or Arcade) since the rate there would be relatively close to Batam when the rates arent that good. Tested during CNY 2016.

Solution 2 : I change part of my CNY trip money during my last trip at 9400/SGD,plus minus,the rate wont be too far apart when i average it out on the day when i arrive to Batam to change again.

Regardless how expensive,it will still going to be cheaper than in Sillypore. When Batam price up during CNY,Sillypore price also wont stay stagnant anyway and definitely wont come down for sure.

S$210 for a SYT for more than 14 hours,still unable to find in Sillypore even w/o CNY.
(of course i will be paying way lower than that on CNY,hehehe...)

Thats one of my main worry. Last year CNY 2016,4 to 5 Bangladeshi try to undercut my friend's 1.5 juta girl by wanting to pay 1.8 juta and later follow by 2 juta. Not a very nice gesture from them even tho my friend still won.

His girl was so happy with the deal,hehehe...

This is the best time to gauge between the better joint and the not-so-good ones. The events happening in each respective joint tells me many stories, allowing me to rate the booking joint according.

Eg,which joint is mean for what type of person, just like newbie is not recommend to go MM.

I choose to have minimum hiccups. I choose to pre-book and then have 2 more on standing-by mode.

1+2=5,hope i dont end up with 1+2=1,hehehe...

a) Happy 8 - They were made for the Bangladeshi and Indian foreign workers on that day

b) Bunga - Same reason as above

c) MM - Too many runaway girls reported (have the most drug-users)

d) Indah2 - same as MM (minus the drug-users)

e) Hawaii - same as above (minus the drug-users)

f) Gold Bird aka Sedona - Last 2 CNY years ,booking price was doubled yet the girls were fully booked

g) Morena series of joints - they appears to have the highest runaway rate during CNY,anyone giving me money to take the girls from there i will also need to think thrice
Those were my notes which i am taking down base on my memory.

And this spa girl is my joker card. Something that i cannot predict its end day result.
