'Space package' can't promise meeting hero ( 2003-10-29 17:20) (China Daily)
Travel agencies are scrambling to sell "Space Travel Hong Kong" packages,
with Yang Liwei, China's first astronaut, scheduled to arrive in the territory
on Friday, reports New Express News.
The package includes a tour at the Hong Kong Science Museum, where the
Shenzhou V rocket's re-entry capsule and Yang's spacesuit, among other items,
will be exhibited.
But the travel agencies are only "hopeful" that mainland tourists will be
able to enter Hong Kong Stadium on November 1 to meet China's first
astronaut.
