Profit?

This is probably a stupid question but I was wondering with China being a communist country how does Disneyland Hong Kong make any profit?

it ain't making a profit now. Still a money losing operation. China nowdays is just communist by name and its a free market economy.

As for Hong Kong its one of the world's free market economy from this link.

Re: Profit?

why the profits of HKDL is related to the China's communist system ?

btw, Hong Kong is under a separate economic system from China
HK always ranks no.1 in Economic freedom and best investment environment....etc
i would say HK enjoy more freedom than any EU/USA/Japan .....that makes thousands of international banks n companies set up headquarters in HK....

Re: Profit?

HKDL is not on communist soil. It will make a profit in time.. after Disney pimps it up.

Hong Kong's free market exists at the pleasure of an unelected, totalitarian regime.

And "pimps"? TDLFAN, just because a word becomes popular doesn't mean you have to use it. Oooooohhh, but you're just celebrating the lighter side of misygony.

Hypocrisy warning: in the unlikely event that the verb "pimp" spreads and becomes far more popular over the next two decades, and becomes divorced from its origins (the way "sucks" has), I reserve the right to use it.
