Generally, I believe drivers also get a cut. They need to earn their living. The important point for me is how much cut they get and whether their service is good. The one I got helped me to bargain with the papi on the gal's price. He also got recommendations if I ask him for gals. If I want to get a gal, I can ask him to book first. So I don't mind paying for his service.
If I were to go to Balai again, I could get around on my own now as I can remember the makan places, jetty, hotels and location of villas. Not an issue at all. But I'll still get a driver for convenience. Can also have another kaki to play cards and tcss. It'd be boring to just be there for pure bonking and also can't really chat with the gals. That's me.

Bahasa indo is an asset when come to communication with girls. Other than that there are lots of Chinese locals there. OKT, makan, hotel, all spoken Mandarin available.
Thumbs up for your driver for bargaining on your behalf. Anyway If your driver want future and long term business, he has to be reliable and resourceful as well. Bringing you to villa, makan, checkin hotel, booking, sending and fetching girls, to and fro jetty are just the very basic role of drivers if you know what i mean. Hes 24/7 at balai. So booking advance girls and hotels for you is not consider a difficult job for him.
I can understand why you can feel bored at times. How many times can we keep screwing in the room? Having the driver with you, can also keep you occupied throughout your trip. Your confidante as well. Can built a relationship. Who knows he may give you good lobang future trips. Those days when i cheong balai i dont stick to 1 driver. We travel in groups. Have about 3 drivers. So we compare which one is reliable. Same like girls, i never stick to one. I am a chapchai. As far as drivers concerned one thing i must advice you. No matter how good they are to you. Never trust them 100%. Whether they are orang tiong wah or Jawa or batak. Read through all the frs from pg 1 be it balai or batam thread. Lots of Seniors old bird testified to it. Not i hor. I am just a newbie.
