Images of Batam, Indonesia

Batam is one of the islands of Indonesia. It takes about an hour of ferry boat ride from Singapore. This is a rather new city that is developing at a furious pace. Twenty years ago or so, it was just marshland but due to its nearness to Singapore, it developed into an industrial center. That's all I know, folks. Hehehe...
Their houses are very colorful.
I was struck with the variety of shades that they use.
Talong-talo si Bayani Fernando na fuchsia lang ang alam na kulay,
pinangalandakan pa sa mga overpass nia. Sus!


What do you think of the Indonesian flag?
Sa tingin ko, medyo plain siya, di ba? Sabagay, walang kaartehan.
Di na kailangang kantahan ng 'Ang mamatay ng dahil sa yo'.

Sweet murtabak, with lots a cheese,
condensed milk and chocolate. Yummy!
Kasla hotcake ijay Bontoc sika. Namiss ko tuloy native coffee.

These sari skirts don't come cheap. Too bad!
Oray haanen, ta awan metlang kwartak =)
Food, glorious seafood...
Obvious ba, prawn lang ang gusto ko?
Ay apo ti tagabanbantay, awan ti taste na ti fishy-fish.
