Taiwan: Lawyers plan protest march in Taipei Nov. 16
Lawyers to stage protest march from 228 Peace Park to Legislative Yuan in Taipei, Taiwan, 14:30 Nov. 16. Increased security likely.
Lawyers associated with the Taiwan Bar Association plan to hold a protest march from 228 Peace Park to the Legislative Yuan in Taipei from 14:30 on Nov. 16 to condemn proposed changes to the Constitutional Court Procedure Act. Participation numbers will likely range in the low hundreds.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely along the march route and near protest sites. Isolated scuffles between police and activists cannot be ruled out. Associated business disruptions are possible.
Avoid the protest as a precaution. Allow additional travel time near the affected areas. If clashes occur, leave the area immediately. Heed instructions from authorities.
