Why

[FutureCEO]

I know that with a combined population of near 3 billion, its a developing market but why oh why does Disney wanted to build a lot of theme park in India and China.

Because it's a huge market and even if only half of one percent of that population visit the parks in any given year it would be hugely profitable. A lot of people in China are enamoured of all things Western and Disney is about as Western as it gets... So there is a good business case to building there.

Also increase merchandising. Built a park--greater demand for Disney products--greater profits
