Singaporean going to Indonesia (any cities)?

Do take note...

Above were taken from the facebook of the Singapore Embassy in Jakarta.

Always be prepared (wherever you are):

Keep in mind,if there were to be any demonstration in Batam,where would it likely be happening at? (from my own observation - never once happening in/around Harbour Bay ferry terminal during my almost 3 years in Batam) It has happened before from time and again,and it will continue to happen from time to time (terrorism threat,rally,demonstration,major events etc) .

Play safe, exercise vigilance...enjoy yourself...hehehe...

Just for precaution.

Cheers!

Hmm...a new movie in Batam Cinema 21...with an interesting name I.T. Currently only available in cinema 21's BCS and Mega Mall.

I.T

The storyline :

Mike Regan is a self-made man who has it all: a gorgeous wife, a beautiful teenage daughter, and a sleek, state-of-the-art smart home. But he soon finds himself in a deadly, high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse when his I.T. consultant, Ed, starts using his skills to stalk Mike's daughter and endanger his family, his business, and his life. In a world where there is no privacy, Mike needs to rely on his old connections to defeat a new kind of nemesis.

The Trailer :

This movie is pretty interesting. Reminds me of my current part time I.T job now,hehehe... nothing is REALLY safe on the internet. How true...

*personal perspective only

We rely on technology so much,that we forgot most of our basic instinct, intelligence and wisdom. I asked my male colleagues at work,do you know how to cook a bowl of rice w/o using electricity? Hehehe...in my army days when i was much younger,one of our officer gave each of us a pack of uncooked rice...believe me,51 men in a platoon and no one manage to cook the rice well enough to be edible during our jungle training,hehehe...i learned 'something' that day.

Anyway,its just my own thought again...enjoy the movie tho,this one shouldnt be a lousy movie. And please dont forget NOT to buy the food and drink from the theater,hehehe...

Next upcoming movie in this thread which is screening in all of Batam cinema 21 and Blitz theater...Ouija: ORIGIN OF EVIL,its a horror movie (my favourite,hehehe...).

Someone mention demonstration in batam. Yeah!!! I been to a few of their demos, and took a lot of pictures too. Especially their cewek polisi, their cool looking police bike and vehicles. Heck I been to 1 of their president rally too, when jokowi was campaigning to be president. Have a few artists came down and playing dangdut music. Fun times.

So since there's onli abt 1.2% Chinese in the Indo's nearly 250 mil population,indo Chinese who works in the flesh trade wld be rare,not counting in most of em were more well-to-do than the avg indos. Even if we add in the cross-blood indo chinese,it's still a mere 5-6%.

Looking for indo chinese still in tis trade,I'd say it'll b like looking for a SG Peranakan working lady in the red light district of Geylang.

Not impossible,but well...

bro you are right ...
