Trinidad and Tobago: Protest in Port of Spain, Dec. 7

A worker's union will lead a protest outside of Whitehall in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, from 09:00 Dec. 7.

Warning

The Joint Trade Union Movement has called for a protest outside of Whitehall in Port of Spain from 09:00 Dec. 7. The action is to denounce recent decisions to raise senior government officials' salaries. Thousands of people are likely to attend the gathering; several unions have reportedly declared their support for the action.

Heightened security is likely near the affected site through the morning Dec. 7. Related disruptions to road travel are likely in the area. Confrontations are possible if demonstrators engage in acts of public violence or ignore police orders.

Avoid all protests. Heed official directives. Plan for ground travel delays near Whitehall through the morning Dec. 7.
