Same here. I won't be thinking of going Batam until next year. Not even sure which part of next year, hehehe...
I feel so sad at times that some of the girls i knew who went back to their hometown from Batam has pass away (from lack of medical attention, i think).
Most tourist reliant massage places are closed. Sports Massage, Reborn etc are still opened.
Nope, i can't name the place now but according from an Indo Chinese friend in Batam, they are mostly all closed (if not all).
While food courts may still be opened, many lesser popular stalls in it are closed. Many bigger scale international chain hotels are still open, it's easy for them to survive by just cutting back on the number of staffs in it (& shut down the top 5 floors of their hotel). The regular few hotels i frequent are still there, just no more KTVs, & minimum Massage personnel in it.
Not sure, never ask.
Local are required to be vaccinated before they are allowed to step into malls. The last i heard, less than 30% of Indonesian were vaccinated which mean 3 out of 10 locals are allow to enter the mall.
Not sure, never ask.
Above were as much i knew so far. I may be out-dated tho since it's been a long time.
