Why Hong Kong's mad at Mickey
Many Hong Kong residents are ready to give Mickey Mouse a big hug for bringing a new Disneyland to their city – but others would like to give the black grinning rodent a punch on the nose.
They are angry at issues including Disneyland’s initial plans to sell shark fin soup at the park that opens on Monday. Others are irked about smoky fireworks shows that will add pollution to already smoggy skies. And Disneyland made headlines when it asked dog catchers to round up dozens of strays near the park and send them to certain death.
