Real or mock, a protest in SG by another other name still requires a police permit
A little interesting short news snippet at Channel NewsAsia caught my eye today about a mock protest for men to compete in an woman only running event may have “run afoul of the law.”
Wrote Channel NewsAsia,
SINGAPORE: A publicity stunt to promote the Anlene Orchard Mile run may have ended up running afoul of the law.
About 20 men took part in a ‘mock protest’ along Orchard Road on Sunday afternoon to complain about not being able to take part in the women-only run.
The organisers did not have a permit to do so and police are investigating the incident.
This reminds of a Salesforce.com mock protest against software held almost exactly a year ago at the same place saw the AP MD ending up at the police station to explain the protest.
