the reason why we lost the Disneyland

Posted by   on

Do you want to know the reason why we lost the Disneyland ?

Recent conversation between President of Disneyland International(A) and
his Senior Vice-President of International Marketing(B):

A: So what's the latest on the international front?
B: Let's see. Yes, we have an enquiry from Malaisher.
A: Malaisher? Where's that? In Thailand?
B: No, that's somewhere south of Thailand. Small country, shaped like a banana.
A: Okay, what do they want?
B: They are interested in setting up Disneyland there.
A: Oh really? That must be near Hongkong. How are we doing in Hongkong?
B: Oh Hongkong is fine. That's because the weather in Hongkong is great,
very conducive to outdoor action for the whole family.
A: What about the weather in Malaisher then?
B: Blistering hot, up to the thirties. Then they have two monsoons, six
months apart.
A: Hmm, go on.
B: And when it rains, the place floods like hell. Cars washed away, trees
uprooted, landslides.
A: You're kidding.
B: No sir. I've got a report here that says only 4 days ago an Indonesian
community was washed away by a landslide.
A: Indonesian community? I thought you said Malaisher?
B: Oh yes, but they have hundreds of thousands of illegal workers, mainly
from Indonesia.
A: What's the crime rate like in Malaisher?
B: Pretty bad. Snatch thieves, children kidnapped and killed ... last week
a little girl was found dead. And the crime rate is expected to go up.
A: Expected to go up? Who said that?
B: The police themselves. They threatened to let the crime rate go up if
the government sets up a commission that all of them don't like. See, it's
here on the Net.
A: They even circulated that kind of threat on the Net?
B: Apparently a dumb corporal did it by mistake.
A: Tell me more about the police there.
B: Well, a report here says last week there was a peaceful demonstration
against some tariff hikes and the police bashed them up, beat the hell out
of them. I've got pictures.
A: Sounds brutally efficient.
B: Not really, cos last month there was another demonstration; this time
against a forum that was being held in a hotel, and the police couldn't
control that crowd. They actually asked the people in the
forum to go home.
A: What more can you tell me about Malaisher?
B: Let's see ... oh yes, they produce fake DVDs by the thousands and
actually sell them openly.
A: Gee, that bad huh? Well we can't let them touch our merchandise then,can we?
B: No sir. Oh, one more thing. They support Iran's nuclear program.
A: Tell me you're kidding!
B: No sir, they just had a regional meeting and their PM declared his
stand. It's all in their on-line news.
A: Alright, listen. I've heard enough. We are not sending Mickey Mouse there
