Walt Disney Co. faces calls from Hong Kong lawmakers to reveal attendance and earnings figures, after missing its first-year target of 5.6 million visitors.

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Poking his white-gloved mouse paws into the sides of a giggling Chinese child, Mickey's antics have brought delight in the world's newest Disneyland in Hong Kong.

Mickey Mouse should be really worried about people like Shum Nai-ho.

From September 30 – October 31, 2006, Hong Kong Disneyland park is lighting up in the spirit of the season, joining other Disney theme parks around the world that annually celebrate Halloween in fun-filled fashion. It’s a way for guests with friends and family - who are welcome to wear their Halloween costumes - to trick-or-treat in a safe and Halloween-themed environment that is whimsically spooky.

HONG KONG (XFN-ASIA) - Hong Kong Disneyland said it has attracted more than 5.0 mln visitors in its first year of operation, just below the 5.6 mln people it had hoped for.

The government is seeking approval to spend HK$119.5 million to construct a saltwater supply system in Penny's Bay so Hong Kong Disneyland can flush toilets without wasting fresh water.

Actors who dress up as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and other characters to greet visitors at Hong Kong Disneyland are getting pay raises and longer breaks, the park said Sunday, following complaints of work-related injuries, low pay and quick turnarounds between shifts.

Hong Kong Disneyland has admitted that visitor numbers were lower than it expected during the May Golden Week, and said it will introduce new measures to boost figures during the summer.
