she offered 400k/1 shot
at that time, im not feeling well and low on cash, so i declined her
then she said she doesnt mind im not feeling well and willing to cut the price by 50%
i was thinking, why on earth she is in such urge to earn money, is she in need of money?
then i accepted her offer, i went to her kost and told her that i am waiting in the from on the shophouse (she lived in the shop house behind melia panorama)
i waited few minutes, she asked me to go to her room directly, so i went in, i waited in front of her room, and she asked to give her the money first
i told her, i need to see her, then she persisted to ask the money first, then i got annoyed, i said then cancel it, my mood is ruined, when i was about to leave, she opened the door a lil bit, i saw that she look very different with the picture, quite tall, and the voice is hoarse, then i am shocked, is she a transvestite ?
then i just leave, when i reached home, she asked me, why do i leave, i said, i am scared, you are transvestite, she said she is a woman, but she is not feeling well, so her voice is hoarse.
and i tell her, no matter what, the deal is over, then i block and deleted her from my wechat

be careful, hoping this experience wont happen to anyone else
Thank you for sharing,another not-so-good experience from FL. Really appreciate this piece of info.

Hi bro,there is no need to be sorry about it. It was my mistake for taking information for granted. I should have dig in further when you 1st inform in this thread about the MTQ. And looks like i need to cancel my trip TOTALLY and waste off my leaves taken. Totally no available room on those dates i plan to go,like that how to go...lol.

Nonetheless,i learned something. Never expect to be spoon-fed & never takes information given for granted. Damn me...i make same mistakes twice for this month. I was expecting to have a room of my desire during my May 2014 Trip and in the end i was disappointed.This MTQ is my 2nd mistake on May and i was being pre-warned in advance by you beforehand.

Hope i won't make the same mistake thrice again.

You are right,bro...i have just called Kaha Travel on 1st June 2014 at 11am. Almost all hotel rooms are fully booked from 5th to 15th of June 2014. Formosa Hotel 100% fully booked during those dates.

Just expect hotel fully book and crowded in batam only. Nothing affect cheonging.
Agree with you,but to be exact...only those who plan an overnight trip will be affected,becos of the lack of available room.

Sorry to interrupt bro,according to this thread. It is harder to find a massage parlor that do not provide "special"than those that does...lol.At some point if there is a chance for non-GQ shop to provide special,i believe they will take it. My guess...
