Walt Disney denies planning Disneyland in Laos

Walt Disney denies planning Disneyland in Laos

The Walt Disney Company has denied it planned to build a Disneyland in Laos, Khaosod reported.

"We continually look for ways to grow our business and as part of that process we have conversations with many different entities," a US-based company representative said in an email to the website Khaosod.
"While Laos is an attractive market, we have no plans for the region at this time," Christi Erwin Donnan said.
Khaosod sought the confirmation from Walt Disney after confusion stemmed from an article early this month published by the Lao-government-run Vientiane Times.
"Excavation work to prepare land for construction of Disney Laos ... will begin next month" at Thakek, the newspaper stated on its inside cover.
The term Disney Laos led to widespread rumours on social media that a Disneyland would be built in the landlocked country.
