Gloomy bay brightened with a wave of Disney's wand

Disney is so powerful it can even rename parts of Hong Kong. While virtually all MTR stations are named after their locations, Disney has decided to call the last rail station before their Hong Kong theme park 'Sunny Bay'. In Chinese, it will now be called Yan O. The area in northern Lantau is actually called Yam O, which means a dark or shadowy bay. It is the same Chinese character as 'yin', as in yin/yan.

A name like this obviously won't do for a sunny place like Disneyland, which is opening in September.
