Batam
Time zone in Batam is : GMT+07:00
Batam is one of the largest islands in the Riau archipelago. Like many islands in the region, it was once an underdeveloped island, but after the declaration of free trade in 1989, the island was completely converted into a tourist destination and business district, in a very short time frame. Its strategic location close to the Malacca Strait and Singapore has made Batam one of the biggest ports of Southeast Asia and a major center of international trade, industry and commerce. Despite its many luxurious hotels, Batam is still considered as a transit destination or entry point to Singapore. On the other hand it\'s a great place to get your hands on affordable electronics.
The capital of West Kalimantan, on the island of Borneo, Pontianak is one of Indonesia\'s more unique cities, as it is located directly on the equator. To celebrate its particular latitude position, the city erected the Equator Monument in Siantan. With the three main cultures of Dayak, Melayu and Chinese in harmony, the people of Pontianak have developed a unique culture of their own. One of the many attractions to Pontianak are the various cultural festivals held almost every month.
