Sure or not,at his age he can still cum so many times? You brought him to drink jamu is it?

Like that his older girl is a better value for money then.

Yes, this time of the year, due to not-so-good business ,hence most of their girls are in. So i guess it's good for him then.

I thought it should be the other way round.

[retirebatam]

After having been to Batam for ten over times over the past few years, last week went for a 3D2N trip is my first time to Batam during Ramadan Period.
Some of the uncommon things noted include:

1) Restoran have less customer during fasting hours (after suhur but before iftar)
2) All eating outlet have curtain to cover probably to show respect to the religion. However those cewek who has menses (datang bulan), sick or take medication may not be required to fast
3) Massage centres generally have less customers resulted more choice of massage cewek to choose from.
4) Booking joints mostly front door all closed, some may have back door open at certain hours of the day.
5) Very minimum street food sold during the day.
6) Hotel accomodation has less occupancy
7) Less crowded in the mall

2 months ago during March 2018
There are some Batam telco prepaid sim card (data only) no need for registration. example : Three
Only those with voice call and data require registration.

Now or May 2018
All telco require registration be it data only or data+call.
Telcomsel prepaid sim have to go to nagoya hill Telkomsel to register, waiting time about 30-40mins during off peak hours. During peak hours/season may have to wait for more than one hour.

Therefore now, we only left with the following choice to be on-line if we do not buy an indonesian sim card:

1) Use singapore telco data roaming
2) Use hotel provided wi-fi in the room or lobby
3) Go to those restarants/cafe in Nagoya Hill Mall that offers free wifi e.g. Coffee town at level 1, Malaya Cafe at level 3, Baresto Cafe at level 3 , etc.

Long time ago few years back all these restaurants did provide free wifi before but later were discontinued. Recently they offer free wifi again because maybe they understand that foreigner now seldom buy prepaid sim because due to the long waiting time to register at the telco office. Therefore providing free wifi helps to boost up their business too.

Unlike in singapore and Malaysia, prepaid sim card can be registered directly at the shop outlet be it local or foreigner as long as produce paspor or IC will do. However, in indonesia, if you want to register your newly bought perpaid sim at the shop outlet, you must have a Kartu Tanda Penduduk or KTP for short (pronounce as Car-Teh-Pay) or the local resident identity card. Even if a person is an indonesian (but not from Batam) also have to register at the Telco office because his KTP is not Batam KTP.

Therefore would you want to take the hassle to buy a sim card and wait at the telco office for an hour or more, just for the sake of 3D2N or 4D3N, after that the validity of the sim card became expired after 2 months if you dont return to Batam within that period?

[retirebatam]

There is a way you can no need to register again for an indonesia prepaid sim card but continue to use your existing sim card...

Normal validity period of a prepaid sim is 2 months, however you may top up the validity of the sim in singapore one day before expire.

There are two ways that maybe you can do...

First is to buy some prepaid top up card in Batam and keep. Key in the pin of the top up when in singapore. (as advised by one mobile phone shop owner)

Second is buy a prepaid sim top up in Lucky Plaza @Orchard Road in case top up cards all used up (should have sell telkomsel prepaid top-up card)

Correct me if I am wrong

Many iftar stall start selling Fr 3 and finish before dusk.
And most of them closed their shop at their regular location and operates at the iftar market for the Ramadan month.

Youtube video can still post (tested as below)...simply go to the youtube video page you wish for the video to be posted here,right click on the video itself, click on Copy Video URL and then paste it in the forum posting page will do. SBF has the simplest way of posting youtube video on its posting message board,hehehe...
