Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

The few money changers at Harbour Bay outside few meters from Harbour Mart has close down,i think its due to some renovation work. Taxi from Harbour Bay to most parts of Nagoya,Penuin etc going at 30k rupiah,hehehe...nothing new,but anyone knew about the aftermath effect it had on the industry?

Taxi and ojek touting suddenly become way lesser than usual. I used to hear taxi driver/s and ojek/s asking me if i need their service once every min on average but this time round,walking for over 5 mins around the area,nobody ask me those,hehehe...i mean,if ojek gonna cost about 20k rupiah from Harbour Bay,then why not take a taxi from front desk taxi stand at 30k rupiah?


I dont mean taxi touting has completely stop but at least the frequency is now much lesser in Harbour Bay,hehehe...good news for tourists (projecting a better and cleaner image). No need to be constantly "pestered" by them.
