A 10th Anniversary gift: A pair of gaint pandas

The Central People’s Government will give another pair of giant pandas as a gift to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) in celebration of the 10th anniversary of the establishment of HKSAR. The State Forestry Administration announced on March 20 that two young and vivacious giant pandas born in the China Conservation and Research Centre for the Giant Panda in Wolong, Sichuan, in August 2005 have been selected.
The Government has commenced preparatory work to receive the giant pandas. Following the arrangements in 1999 when An An and Jia Jia were given to Hong Kong, the Government will entrust the care of the new giant pandas to the Ocean Park.

Where can I sue for discrimination? I should be entitled to the same benefits as any brat who can't appreciate Disney the way I do and promote it on these sites.

I think you're joking there.

This offer is good for Local HongKongers, Mainland Chinese, as well as overseas tourists. (Every Child born in 1997 are qualified to get the Free Annual Pass)

It looks good for business to me. How many of those kids will sucker their parents into buying passes so they can go to disney. Or maybe 10 year olds are allowed out on their own here. if they give out passes to 10,000 kids, and only one parent each buys a pass--add to that lunches and goodies.... Well, that's a lot of potential cash handed out. (ok, I'm not a mathematician, but it looks good to me.) It might also add to the number of people through the gate this year.

You must have caught a sneak peek at tomorrow's 'This Week in HKDL' column, because that pretty much sums up my feelings about it too.

Now what's a 10 year old going to do with 2 giant pandas?






Kidding.

I think for overseas tourists, getting the tickets to the park is the least amount of cost they will have.

But it's still a cool thing.
