• Activists associated with the New School for Democracy and other civil society groups are slated to hold an annual vigil at the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Zhongzheng District in Taipei from 15:00-21:00 (local time) on June 4. 
• The vigil and associated events will be held to commemorate and to pay tribute to the individuals who lost their lives in China’s crackdown on protests held at Beijing’s Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989. 

1. Turnout at the aforementioned vigil and associated gatherings is expected to range between the high hundreds to low thousands, based on the precedent observed in the annual vigil in recent years, coupled with perceptions of heightened anti-Chinese sentiments in Taiwan. The participation is likely to be bolstered further if anti-China political parties, such as the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), or other civil society organizations decide to hold ad-hoc gatherings. Based on precedent, the gathering is expected to transpire peacefully amid tight security. 
2. Anticipating a high turnout, special security measures are expected to be implemented in the vicinity of the aforementioned location, including Liberty Square, to prevent any untoward incidents and minimize associated travel disruptions. Given the location’s sensitivity and proximity to diplomatic and government complexes, temporary traffic measures and elevated security measures are likely in the vicinity of the aforementioned areas throughout the day on June 4. Significant disruptions to pedestrian movement and vehicular traffic can be expected in Zhongzheng District on June 4. 

Those operating or residing in Taipei on June 4 are advised to allot for disruptions around Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Zhongzheng District due to the slated commemorative vigil and heightened security measures.
