A proposal to redevelop part of Hong Kong’s Ocean Park into a recreational, dining and entertainment zone failed to draw external investors before an invitation for tenders closed in late July, the attraction’s chairman has revealed.

As part of the struggling Aberdeen theme park’s HK$6.8 billion rebirth plan following the ravages of the coronavirus pandemic, 80,000 square metres near the main entrance at Wong Chuk Hang will be turned into a retail, dining and entertainment hub with free entry.
