Will do so in my later trips to Batam. CNY not a good time as they are likely to close during those period.

It would be good to recce a bit around Windsor area too. That area seems to be quite a bit of a treasure island. Even Meximo Pub wantan noodle is around that area too.

Thank you for verifying with me the location.

The premieres of these CNY movies have been delayed in China as a measure to slow down the spread of the Wuhan virus; to minimise mass congregation.
In the event if you or anyone needs to buy any mask, can buy in Batam. No need to buy in Singapore which is selling at sky rocketing price now.


Cost of 50 pieces in a box selling at Batam Penuin Top 100, Grand Batam Mall cost 20k rupiah,hehehe...there have been so much talk on TV now regarding price-hike of those mask.

* this message is probably too late by now,hehehe...probably all masks were sold out or be very expensive, if there is any left.

Just sharing.
