A whopping 70 percent Hongkongers don't have a good impression of Hong Kong Disneyland and think it has not fully fulfilled its social responsibility because of inadequate communications.

A random survey conducted by Polytechnic University (PolyU) School of Hotel and Tourism Management shows seven out of 10 people's attitude has become more negative towards the theme park because of the problems experienced since its opening. The survey covered 524 people, 31 per cent of whom had visited the park.

More than 50 percent of the respondents said it was unfair for the SAR government to provide HK$13.6 billion for land reclamation and infrastructure to attract Walt Disney to Hong Kong.
