Pro-democracy activists to rally near Legislative Yuan in Taipei, Taiwan, July 15. Increased security, disruptions likely.
Pro-democracy activists affiliated with the Bluebird movement will rally outside the Legislative Yuan in Taipei on July 15. The action is to denounce proposed provisions of the Organic Law of the National Communications Commission (NCC Organic Law). Similar previous demonstrations have attracted thousands of participants.
Authorities will likely monitor the rally as a precaution. Isolated minor scuffles between police and activists cannot be ruled out. Associated localized business and transport disruptions are likely.
Avoid the demonstration as a standard precaution. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Allow additional travel time near gathering sites. Plan accordingly for possible localized business disruptions. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
