Shabby behaviour at Hong Kong Disneyland By Fei Li (China Daily) Updated: 2005-09-17 07:43 But regrettably, some visitors from the mainland, according to media
exposure, failed those requirements.
 Four Chinese mainland women rest on the ground
barefoot. [sohu] | Photographs of a child urinating near one of the park's restaurants and four
mainland Chinese women resting on the ground barefoot were plastered in the
newspapers.
And some male tourists pulled up their shirts or their long pants to cool
down, according to reports by Hong Kong newspapers. Tourists smoking in
non-smoking areas were also frequently spotted.
Those who behaved indecently deserve to be reprimanded. But at the same time,
the theme park should also take some blame.
Some visitors complained that it was hot on the day the park opened formally
to the public, but the park lacked shaded areas.
 A man lies on the
park's bench. [sohu] | And the lack of adequate resting places forced some tourists to squat on the
ground because long hours of queuing had already exhausted them.
Actually, reports of our fellow countrymen not behaving properly on overseas
trips are nothing new.
Such reports have surfaced in domestic media intermittently ever since
Chinese people began to take overseas trips in groups since the late 1990s.
And usually a heated discussion ensued, lamenting our compatriots' lack of
etiquette or indecent behaviour when abroad.
Indeed, we are embarrassed to see some signs exclusively
written in Chinese at airport lobbies in some countries, reminding Chinese not
to talk loudly.
