HONG KONG ~ Hong Kong Disneyland could be given a government bailout as it struggles to attract more visitors, a senior minister was reported as saying.

Frederick Ma, secretary for commerce and economic development, said the government was considering investing more cash into the theme park to help it expand, according to the Standard newspaper on Tuesday.

In the past, the government has ruled out adding to the HK$25 billion (US$3.2 billion) it has already invested, the report said.
