Taking the Mickey

Hong Kong Disneyland, 80 percent paid for by Hong Kong taxpayers:
There are four zones to the park: Tomorrowland, Fantasyland and Adventureland are where you’ll find the attractions, and Main Street USA — the American Gothic mall selling Disney-branded merchandise from T-shirts to tea sets — is where you’ll be taken for a ride. My advice is to save your cash — not only is that Tigger tie tasteless, it’s 10 times the price of the perfect copy on sale in the Mong Kok night market. Mindful that anything can be faked in Hong Kong, Disney has attempted to thwart the knock-off artists by including special holograms on the labels of genuine merchandise. The fakers have responded with counterfeit holograms.
Read the rest? It's here in the UK's Sunday Times.

Je crois que c'est encore pire en France pour Disneyland Paris.
