Six Flags might be building or owning a park in Dubai, South Korea, or Qatar. Here is the story:
Meanwhile the latest rumors about Six Flags were interesting from a business point of view, as it seems the company may be in discussion with various groups about building Six Flags branded parks in Dubai, South Korea and Qatar. (Where? Yeah, I had to look that one up too…) So I guess the big question now is if Six Flags will take part in running those parks, or will they just license off their name for a franchise fee and a share of a profits?
Even though this sounds almost made up and rediculous, It could work. Those areas are major vacation destinations and have high population. South Korea has almost 50 Million People. I actually have an idea of What the Six Flags South Korea park could look like:

So even though this is probably made up and is from screamscape what do you think. I actually think that if Six Flags does build a park like this, it would fit Shapiro's idea of a park. I don't know if Wiggle's are that popular in These Areas.

I agree with the last 2 posts but for an extra $0.02 the Huss Giant Top Spin is currently not offered for sale by Huss and probably wont be at any point in the future unless there are major advances in ride technology.

Although a good idea from a business pov if its true they could make money but why not built another one here in America. SiX Flags over Florida, Six Flags Hawaii or Las Vegas they would make a good addition to the company they could open it year round theyll probably make enough money and get about 6 to 5 million visitors a year from other pass holders who takes vacation to these states and international tourist who knows SF reputation for good rides. Could you imagine riding a clone of raging bull in Las Vegas or a viper ride in FL open all year except when its closed not a bad idea at all...
^There is already too much competition in the state. How has Cypress Gardens been doing? Even if SF did build a park, they would have the most competition from Busch Gardens.

There is a very good reason why Hawaii has no coasters. The islands are not stable enough for them to be safe. Screamscape only reported this as a rumor heard. Not as fact. In the last 2 years, Screamscape's info has been pretty reliable. When it's just a rumor, they say so.
^The weather would effect the coasters a little bit but other states have bad weather and they stay stable plus I don't think some parts of Hawaii isn't not stable enough. They could build coasters on the island it's just a small state but very vacation popular but more for the beaches and resorts and stuff unless a coaster fan went there for vacation.
