,so lucky everything as i formulation.
As a whole,batam is a great place for travel,the blue sky,tropical weather,less habitants(than china beijing),the friendly residents(except the customs officer),the cheap travel fee,about the food,but i dont think all the person could adapt indonisan food,coz the flaove is incline to sweet+piquant+sour,and plus kind of fishy.the hotel is good,the big room and dont need tip for the server(the hotel i live in that is 89hotel 3 stars),about language problem there,the most of the residents couldnt speak english as well,coz of the offical language is indonisan,but some of them could speak chinses,and hookie.there is the important tip for chinses,when through the customers after get off the ferry,they always foist us,coz the chinses passpost,then need give them 50 singapore dollors for corruption,they will ask your two way ticket that you have bought,so need prepare it,and set all position at perimeter.
