AI Summary:
The competition to name the twin cubs launched Saturday following a celebratory ceremony. Residents can submit their suggestions via the park's website. The pair, currently identified as the “Elder Sister” and the “Little Brother," will make their public debut. Ocean Park’s chairman Paulo Pong said the park already saw income increases over the Christmas period and Lunar New Year holiday. But caring for pandas in captivity is expensive. Ocean Park recorded a deficit of 71.6 million Hong Kong dollars last financial year.
