If you notice,in most summaries i will declare my spendings to the public,but not so much on the 17th trip. It is becos its a "friend to friend trip". So the spending structure and mentality is entirely different. Notice also i didnt spell out any bro's nick initial from this thread or from other forums? I am a follower in the last trip from after day 2 onward, so it naturally cannot be counted in as normal spending.

I am sorry i cannot answer your question directly cos it will become irrelevant weighing from the situation as mentioned above. But under normal circumstances and base on my experience,i spend around S$200 per night staying in Batam which excludes ferry and w/o shopping. I do bring spare cash for the "in case of emergency" reason. After subsidised by my company claim on hotel room/s,some "entertainment" plus "earning back" my ferry tickets from my shopping at Batam Lucky Plaza ,my average rough gauge spending per night in Batam is about S$125 for one night. Lesser than S$100 if i dont stay in Formosa Hotel.

Girl : 600k/night (or 800k/night)
Tips : 150k/night (sometime 100k/night)
Taxi : 80k/night
Food : 100k for girl to eat
Toiletries : 50k
Total : 980k/night = S$100 base on 9800/SGD exchange rate
(exchange rate was between 9850/SGD to 9860/SGD during my 17th trip)

Its just a close rough guide of my normal spending in Batam,hehehe...see, i am afterall a stingy man who dont really like to pay more when i can pay less. And i doubled my spending on my 17th trip....*sob* (pains my heart deeply...lol)[/QUOTE]
