Not surprising some people choose to DIE in batam. Generally a good place to call a second home. Or those semi retired.
1) It is close to Singapore.
2) cheaper living, life is not so stressed.
3) Better air quality
4) CHEONGING!!  . plenty of choice. |
Yup.....stupid as it sounds, I actually do like shopping there....in malls who are away from the usual sg crowds.
Im quite sick of sg, everywhere is ppl ppl ppl....work is damn stress.
feels like killing myself (no joke) at times.
lucky still got a nice place like batam for relax once a while.
but I read there are plans for Indonesia to promote tourism in batam...dunno good or bad news.
