Disneyland in Ipoh?

Rumours have been circulating around in the city of Ipoh and became a topic to the Malaysians. A Disneyland will be built in Ipoh, for sure? Ipoh had been a dull and dead city for decades due to failure of local government to upgrade the city and improve its status. Once known as the City of Millionaires, now gained its status as a perfect place to live in after your retirement. Perhaps its a good thing too. The beautiful scenery and the green lung it has provides a different lifestyle than any other cities such as KL, Georgetown and Johore can give. The heart of Ipoh is a busted area but outside the town, its a perfect place to live in. Recently, the news of Ipoh Disneyland filled the mouth of Malaysians. It is said that a space of 250 hectare will be used to construct this massive entertainment ground and is expected to complete in the year 2014, 2 years from now. The location is at Meru Jaya, not in the heart of Ipoh but an area near Menglembu. Meru Jaya is best known for its cozy ambiance and the green lifestyle on the hill, most preferred by loaded people. This Disneyland has 5 theme parks and besides the famous cartoon characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cinderella etc...we will have our local icons, some Malay warriors, assuming Hang Tuah and nenek kebayan (Malays' old wicked witch). A combination of the west and east. If Disneyland is really built in Ipoh, Ipoh will instantly mapped in the world map. It is a great honour to have Disneyland here and we stand equally with Hong Kong and Tokyo who has their own Disneyland respectively. Ipoh is always known best for its gourmet but not tourism attraction. This massive project will definitely bring a lot of tourists to Ipoh, running its economy.
