2007 Hong Kong Disneyland Ambassador Selected

(HONG KONG, November 17, 2006) - Jasmine Law, a young, dynamic and outstanding Cast Member, has been selected as the 2007 Hong Kong Disneyland Ambassador.

Jasmine will represent Hong Kong Disneyland and its 5,000 Cast Members in spreading the Disney Magic. She will be the 'face' of Hong Kong Disneyland, charged with the tasks of sharing the Park experience with the public, of being an emissary of goodwill in the community and the official host for visiting dignitaries.

A Cast Member since July 2005, Jasmine graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and took part in the grand opening of Hong Kong Disneyland Resort in 2005. She began her career in the Resort as a Character and Parade Lead and is currently working as a Training Coordinator.

"My dream has come true!" exclaimed Jasmine upon learning of her new role. "It is a great honor for me to be entrusted with the important role of representing Hong Kong Disneyland. I will do my best to share the unique Disney experience with our Guests from around the world and serve the community together with our great Disney VoluntEARS."

Applications for the role came from different lines of business of Hong Kong Disneyland. The selection process took more than three months to complete, during which applicants were required to submit essays and participate in a series of rigorous interviews and training sessions Jasmine was selected for her compassion to serve the community, her presentation skills and rich knowledge of the Disney heritage.

The first Disneyland Ambassador was selected by Walt Disney himself in 1964 to commemorate Disneyland Park's first decade of successful operation. The Ambassador program proved to be so successful that Ambassadors have since given a face and a name to Disneylands round the world for more than 40 years. Today, every Disney theme park has its own ambassador.

Jasmine will participate in the Worldwide Ambassador training program in Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World in Florida before her tenure begins on January 1, 2007. She will be in the role for one year.

Jasmine succeeds Angela To who has served as Hong Kong Disneyland Ambassador in 2005 and 2006 and made a significant contribution to promoting the Park and leading Cast Members in serving the community.

Commending Angela To and welcoming Jasmine in her new role, Bill Ernest, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Hong Kong Disneyland Resort said, "It is a challenge for Jasmine to carry out the Ambassador role that has so successfully been built up by Angela in Hong Kong. I trust that it is a pleasant responsibility that Jasmine has rightly been entrusted with."
