The suggested Disneyland would be located at Nusajaya (Near Second Link),in Johor Bahru, Johor. As the news broke out, first thing came out in Malaysian mind was the feasibilities of this project. Most of the people here really doubt if this Disney would be successful in here as what happenned to other Disneyland.
Taking the location, and environment into considerations, this Malaysia Disneyland would be the first Disneyland appeared in South East Asia. It would not having four season change as South East Asia having summer all year long. So, would it be the unique selling point of Malaysia Disneyland or it might turns the visitor off, because of that? This would be answered by those who worked for Disneyland I think.
Personally I do hope that it would be success, and triggers the industry around JB.
