Disney Corporation already under criticsm for such films as 'Kundun', 'Zapata' and numerous other insensitive entertainment products, plans to extend the Will Eisner Wall Street Disney Corporation from it's current holdings in the US, Europe and Japan to the development of 'China Disneyland' on Hong Kong's Lantau Island. Claiming that 'Mickey Mouse will soon be as popular in China as the Big Mac' the proposed 14.1 billion dollar theme park is scheduled to open 2005. Although 'Mi Laoshu', or Mickey Mouse, may be a cash cow for the Disney Corporation, critics of the project cite 'Hong Kong Disney' as just another case of US Cultural Imperialism and neo-colonialism at work in the Middle Kingdom.
