SINGAPORE: Police have again stressed that any outdoor protest at the ASEAN summit is illegal.
Police found out that a group of foreign students plan to stage a protest outside the Shangri-La Hotel by standing in groups of four during the summit.
Queenstown police have informed some of the organisers that what they were planning to do is illegal and they should instead apply for a permit to hold an indoor event to give expressions to their views.
Police explained that the public area around the hotel and the summit's three other venues have been gazetted as protected areas.
Anyone who compromises the security of the ASEAN summit, including those who protest within the protected areas, may be removed to ensure safety. - CNA/ac
