2006年9月7日新加坡聯合早報引述消息指，新加坡正在與華特迪士尼公司重新談判，讓迪士尼樂園落腳新加坡。

根據報道，如果談判順利，新加坡準備提撥迪士尼樂園的土地，將位在開發賭城、金融中心等計劃的濱海灣新市區 對岸。緊臨濱海灣高爾夫球場、且距離樟宜機場不到半個小時車程的濱海東黃金地段，面積大約和佔地七十公頃的 東京迪士尼樂園相若。
報道引述迪士尼樂園與渡假村發言人莉薩的談話指出，對迪士尼來說，新加坡一直都是個很好的市場，他在東南亞 的區域總部地位也不斷成長，「我們會繼續評估這個市場，但現在沒有消息可以公布」。

新加坡旅遊局觀光與油輪組署長田子沛向聯合早報表示，旅遊局為達成二零一五年旅遊目標，必須推出和開發兩座 綜合度假勝地(賭城)及能吸引家庭遊客的旅遊產品，如主題公園和旅遊景點，並讓它們紮根新加坡 。

新加坡旅遊局設下目標，將在二零一五年吸引一千七百萬人次的遊客到新加坡，同時讓旅遊收入達到 三百億新元。
