Disney Park in Hong Kong?

Article Abstract:

Walt Disney Co plans to build a theme park in Hong Kong where it will get half ownership in the project valued at over $3 billion. Under the proposal, Disney would invest $250 million in the park which would be built in the island of Lantau, near the city's new international airport. Funding for the project would come from three sources. First, land, infrastructure and road improvement projects would be contributed by Hong Kong. Second, low-interest loans would also be provided by Hong Kong. Third, Hong Kong would contribute $250 million as part of its share in the construction.
