Taiwan: Activists to rally in Kaohsiung May 23
Activists plan to rally planned outside Kuomintang party headquarters in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, 18:00 May 23. Disruptions likely.
Activists will gather outside the Kuomintang (KMT) party headquarters in Kaohsiung 18:00 May 23 to denounce the alleged lack of transparency in legislative proceedings. The event could attract thousands of participants.
Authorities will probably monitor the gathering and could implement enhanced restrictions, including roadblocks. Related ground transport and business disruptions are likely. Although unlikely, isolated minor scuffles between police and activists cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the demonstration as a precaution. Plan accordingly for potential transport and business disruptions. Heed all official directives. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance.
