Marchers from both routes will join up at 5pm on Ketagalan Boulevard in front of the Presidential Office.
At a separate setting yesterday, KMT Spokesman Su Jun-pin (蘇俊賓) dismissed the DPP’s accusations and said the KMT did not plan to mess with the DPP’s rally on Saturday.
Su said the KMT had no knowledge of any party members planning to participate in the rally.
He urged the DPP not to make groundless accusations, adding that the party should instead focus on preventing any chaotic situation in the rally caused by its own members.
In related news, the DPP yesterday said it would play no part in two DPP lawmakers’ plans to bring vuvuzelas — the South African instrument heard in the World Cup series — to the rally.
DPP legislators Gao Jyh-peng (高志鵬) and Chen Ming-wen (陳明文) have reportedly ordered up to 200 of the instruments for use in front of the Presidential Office on Saturday — despite their being made in China.
The plastic vuvuzela has caused controversy at the World Cup after several players complained that they could not communicate above the noise.
“We were afraid of ordering more due to its high decibel. We didn’t want the DPP to get fined for [exceeding sound limits]”, Gao said.
