Comment dit-on “Ding Ding” en français?

In keeping with the French tradition of claiming random bits of South East Asia for themselves, the Parisian company Veolia Transport will take over Hong Kong’s iconic tram system as of next month, after having purchased the first 50% of Hong Kong Tramways last year.

Some of you may recall a sensitive transportation issue in Jerusalem a few years back, when that same Veolia built a rail line across the occupied territories for the settlers, without any stops for the Palestinians in their regions. Hence, given this company’s reputation for excluding locals as much as possible, we have drafted what we think might be an accurate map to come for our beloved Ding Dings:
