A politician from the Philippines has sent a letter to Disney CEO Robert Iger suggesting that the Clark Freeport Zone in the Philippines become the next home to a Disneyland, according to the Business Mirror.
The Clark Freeport zone is a redevelopment area for Clark Air Base, a former U.S. Air Force base.
“Aside from the huge space it provides, the Clark Freeport Zone can be an attractive destination for Disneyland theme park because of the tax-free privileges given to locators,” First District Rep. Carmelo “Tarzan” Lazatin wrote in an April 11 letter to Iger, according to the website.
What's the likelihood of this? Not much, considering Disney is now in the middle of building Shanghai Disneyland, which opens up China. And with Hong Kong Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland, you really have to question whether there is enough demand and money to open a park in the Philippines.

There has also been recent speculation of a Disneyland in Dubai. On a recent trip to Dubai to promote the 20th anniversary of Disneyland Paris, Julian Munoz, the director of marketing and sales at Disneyland Paris, talked with officials in the United Arab Emirates, but no plans evolved.
