Hong Kong’s twin panda cubs to make first public outing

Hong Kong’s baby panda twins will make their public debut on Sunday.

Axar.az reports, that citing Reuters, the pair, one female and one male, were born six months ago and join four other pandas at the city’s Ocean Park theme park.

He added that a naming competition had been launched with the names to be announced in the first half of the year.

Since their mother Ying Ying became the world’s oldest giant panda on record to have given birth, just one day shy of her 19th birthday, panda decor and promotions have mushroomed across Hong Kong.

Metro trains and the city’s airport express have adopted panda themes and an exhibition with 2,500 panda sculptures has been on display at different locations around the city.

Adding to panda mania has been the arrival of two from Sichuan, An An and Ke Ke, who were gifted by the central Chinese government in September and only put on display in December.
