I think it would be cool if they did a DisneySea style park or the cancelled "Disney's Enchanted Forest". Shanghai will most likely get one before Hong Kong.

Will Hong Kong ever get a 2nd gate?

Not any time soon. Wish they would, with a second gate and some fleshing out of the resort and castle park I'd book two week on-site stays here.
Disney went in too modest, there should've been a Tokyo / DLP / Anaheim sized resort here by now, twenty years after opening.
This location wasn't asking for a half-day dowsized park visited as an excursion from HK, but for a full size year-round resort to serve the entire delta (almost as large as Japan) and Chinese market.

yes, I agree, and if they can't do a 2nd gate for whatever reason then a water park would be cool and with the whether there.
My pitch for HK's second park would be create a disney cruise ship hub here with shopping, a water park, and a hotel where cruise ships can dock and enjoy a day or two at the park then sail off to areas like China, Macau, Thailand, Singapore, etc. With it acting like a weird mix of disney springs, typhoon lagoon, and a cruise ship harbor
The only reason is money and attendance. No small problem and a catch 22.
I like that idea, especially a new water park.

I don't think they will ever get a second theme park until Shanghai gets theirs.

A pity they have dropped the flower park idea, I thought that was a nice idea for a placeholde, especially for a crowded place like Hong Kong
Hardly the right location. More like a local official trying to shame the company and make some noise for himself.

That's exceptionally telling given the article's choice to report HKDL's financials...from 2018, in a 2026 article.
Good catch !
I agree and would actually argue building this atop of housing/apartments in general would be a significant help to the resort in that it would be the only place besides maybe the USA parks where you are living walking distance to disney. in addition I would argue building housing and maybe a water park and cruise ship hub would significantly grow the resort way more and make it more consistent in attendance then a second park.
plus I want them to figure out the marvel Tomorrowland area before any second park as I still fail to understand if the marvel land is part of Tomorrowland or is called avengers campus, or stark expo, or sm else, or what it will be once the droptower opens. also some armchair imagineering is make space mt either GOTG if they just want it to be marvel or if u want tommorrowland separate make space mt either buzz, bighero6, or even walle. I say this as while I love Space MT HK's version specifically is prob the worst and while I don't want it to be torn down, having a weird unique version I think would help the park
And Paris.
But who says the neighbours would want to visit? Doing this wouldn’t just crack the bubble. It’d break it.

It’s a horrible place for housing. There isn’t infrastructure to support it. People will be multiple metro lines away from basic amenities like a grocery store or pharmacy.
Then everyone gets evicted when they want to build a theme park? How is that socially responsible in any format?
Obviously this is a counselor making noise and not anything meaningful.
