The Embassy of Denmark, Kuala Lumpur recommends to avoid the rally on 23 January 2016  in and around Dataran Merdeka (Merdeka Square), based on information  made available.

“The rally has been organised by the civil groups Bantah TPPA and Kongres Rakyat in protest of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement, to which Malaysia is party,” writes the embassy.

“If the protest proceeds as planned, at 14.30 (local time) participants will gather at Masjid Negara, Masjid Jamek, Jalan Raja Laut and in areas close to Maju Junction Mall before marching towards Dataran Merdeka.”

“If inadvertently caught up in a demonstration, quickly but calmly relocate to a secure location.”
