She made the comment as lawmakers discussed the theme park’s record-breaking profits and visitor numbers last year.
During the Legislative Council economic development panel meeting, some councillors noted the park saw a significant growth in mainland and overseas visitor numbers last year, and that officials should think about relaunching Disneyland’s second phase development.
But Law noted that besides financing, authorities should proceed with caution.
“If the upward trend continues, will the shareholders have the investment appetite for another project within the current theme park, or even the park’s second phase development?” she said.
“For these things, we need to observe a bit more, like whether the source markets of visitors really keep growing in a stable manner.”
Other lawmakers asked the park about its plans to attract more visitors from the Middle East.
Hong Kong Disneyland’s managing director, Michael Moriarty, noted that a pretty high proportion of visitors from the region visit the theme park.
“If you were to look at our attendance from arrivals in the Middle East, it’s one out of every three person on every plane. So I think we are very attractive to our guests in the Middle East,” he told lawmakers.
Moriarty added that besides Halal food, the park also offers praying facilities for Muslims.
