I like your avatar. Looks quite like my avatar in some ways.
And to answer your question. Yes, you should change rupiah in Batam.
But if you do not have a single piece of rupiah at all currently, would suggest you change small amount of rupiah in Singapore first ($50).
The most expensive place to change rupiah in Batam mostly offer better rate compared to Singapore. And most expensive place to change rupiah is none other than Batam Airport/Ferry terminal, major malls etc.
For better rates in Batam, just go to any single shop house-type of money changer to make your change. Always ask for the rate there first before deciding.
For the best rates, simply go to an area where there are money changer clusters. Competition among them usually offers the best.
Hope my reply helps.
