SINGAPORE: Singapore police have advised the public to air their grievances in a lawful manner such as at Speakers' Corner or to apply for an assembly permit if they want to use an indoor venue.

In a statement, police reminded the public that a demonstration in a public place without prior approval from the authorities may be deemed to be an illegal assembly.

The police advisory was in response to media queries following a DBS statement on Monday about its High Notes 5 and Constellation Series restructured products.

Over the weekend, hundreds turned up at the Speakers' Corner at Hong Lim Park to voice their concerns over the current financial turmoil. - CNA/de
