Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Batam accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Batam and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"It has a boom-town feeling, fast development and lots of jobs for the local workforce. Almost all locals or Chinese/local mix. Very young population as this town has many factory jobs open. As mentioned before, since it is far from where people are from they come here, work for a few years and go back," remarked another expat who made the move to Batam, Indonesia.
"Batam is a diverse city with a population made up of people from many different backgrounds. The city is home to a variety of ethnicities, religions, and cultures, and people from all walks of life are welcomed and accepted. The city is known for its open-mindedness and tolerance of differences, and its citizens are proud of their diverse heritage," explained one expat living in Batam, Indonesia.
