Malaysia: Possible rally outside of Parliament November 8

Event

Taxi drivers have threatened to hold a rally outside of the Parliament building in the capital Kuala Lumpur on Thursday, November 8, should their demands not be met by the government. They are requesting a meeting with the minister of transportation to discuss the regulation of ride-sharing apps, which they perceive as unfair. Should the rally go ahead, a heightened security presence can be expected in the vicinity of the Parliament, along with localized disruptions.

Advice

Individuals in Kuala Lumpur are advised to avoid public rallies as a precaution.
