When it comes to scamming, the same can happen in any part of Batam, which includes KTVs & at its bar area too. In fact, it can also happen to other NED area discotheques & some massage places (rare on MP tho, as i haven't hear about it before) too,hehehe...
I think the dangerous part is more on drink-spiking.

Huh? Reach Batam in one big luggage bag & went home with 3?
Wtf, did you just kidnapped 2 SYT ceweks from Batam, squeezed them inside 1 bag each & then secret transport them out?

Not a bad choice. I guess i just need to get used to it.
It often sounds so amazing to me when you said you often travel via Ojek in Batam. I think the girls with you in Batam may have that same thought too.
How was your Batam trip this time round. Any good "kills" from NED or Newton? Changes compare to pre-covid? Hehehe...
