Japan: Activists to gather in central Tokyo November 29

Event

Activists are set to hold a rally in support of US President Donald Trump in central Tokyo on Sunday, November 29. Participants intend to gather at Hibiya Park at 13:45 (local time) before marching to the Otemachi area of the city at 14:00, passing by Tokyo Station on the way. A related rally on Wednesday, November 25, was reasonably well attended but passed off peacefully.

Localized disruptions are possible in the vicinity of the rally and a heightened security presence should be expected.

Advice

Those in Tokyo are advised to avoid the vicinity of any demonstration as a precaution, monitor developments, anticipate transportation and associated disruptions, and adhere to all instructions issued by local authorities.
