A&W @ Batam, Indonesia

A&W which is my favourite fast food during my childhood times and I am sure many people will agree especially Singaporean as A&W had closed down all the outlets in Singapore in the early 90's. Many of you might missed the Waffles ice-cream, the curly fries and most of all, the A&W root beer!!

Let say Singapore time is 0700 hours, Batam time will be 0600 hours. It will take about 45-60 minutes to reach Batam depending on the weather condition. Please remember to check your passport that you need at least 6months vaild before you can enter to any countries include Batam.
