Some things are good in the past, some things...are good in the present. I try to keep what i enjoyed most and hopefully bring it forward to the future.

Thats just me.

The Past is behind, Learn from it.

The Future is ahead, Prepare for it.

The Present is here, Appreciate it.

I think is ok to have other relevant and important info beside just lobang on girls. I am a budget cheongster. If i know where and how to save on tpt, food, hotels, etc etc, i can stretch my Rupiah. Some cheongsters may not like to share their cewek thats their prerogative. I can also understand why they dont wish to share. As for relevant joint info, i believe been posted here several times too.

Next door was Queen 8933 (or used to), they turn them-self into some jackpot shop today, opposite Lovinna Inn used to be Dynasty99, they moved to beside a hotel called Lumba Lumba Inn (got to google the hotel name for map location)...

...and they are now under renovation. Behind used to be New Berry, they moved to opposite Hana Hotel and had their shop name changed to Sekar,hehehe...

Wish you would have a better next trip.

I highly doubt anyone could. Its like terms and conditions in Singapore on Fix deposit account, one of the criteria would be, "Must be Singaporean over 21 of age". Kind of sure same/similar regulation applies for Indonesia too.

Then again, there are always way/s to work around that, legally.

I doubt so. Not sure about UOB but i think one can open an investment account in Singapore to trade foreign currency or invest in that country's currency if there is a promotion deal going on in that particular bank.

Interest rate may not be as high as in those Indonesian investing in Indonesia banks but well, definitely higher than the 2.22% on Singapore dollar.

https://sammyboy.today/showpost.php?p=19...ostcount=14565

However, a very important note is that investing in Singapore in Singapore dollar were covered under some sort of assurance up to the principle sum of S$75k and that applies to Indonesia on Indonesia bank up to 2 billion rupiah (if i did not remember wrong) with some T&C. BUT, they are not covered for foreign currency, eg. Investing rupiah in Singapore bank and/or Singapore dollar on Indonesia Bank.

i have other plans tho,if my choice were to invest in Rupiah on Singapore bank and/or be investing Rupiah in Indonesia bank.

Ooppps.. I hope you are not referring to me. I did share info as well as FR sometimes when I think it is worth sharing. For example, Jakarta, Batam, Johor.

Well-said, & i could not have said it any better. Those who tries to teach others what to say & what not to,only wish to hear what they wish to hear. They forgot, this is a public forum with a topic title.

My view on this is, one guy starts the fire, the other adds the oil onto it without an answer. They only aim to see this thread's downfall, so it'd be flooded with non-btm-related tcss & trolls like the last one in 2007. Every time such things happen, i'll sit back,relax to watch who fed the trolls. Mark up their nicks & u will see if they're ex. presidentially involved.

How's yr days in btm with the aq's task? Still not coming back?

Coffee? Tea? on me at Coffee Luwak Batam. I'll be there again soon.
