Shanghai claimed on Friday that there does not exist any
residents relocation plan for the construction of the Disney theme
park.
The government source with the Chuansha Township of the city's
Pudong New District denied to have seen "any so-called layout
blueprint" and said they have never received any instruction from
the higher authorities concerning the relocating of residents.
Earlier reports said the Disney theme park in Shanghai will be
located in Chuansha and the government of the township already
began relocating local residents.
There would not be any development whatsoever as to the Disney
theme park in Shanghai before the Chinese government has approved
the project, said the township government.
