[Via the U.S. Embassy Tokyo]Local authorities have informed the Embassy that there will be a demonstration starting at Shiba Koen, near Tokyo Tower, and arriving at the U.S. Embassy at approximately 3:00 PM on Friday, September 28.  The Government of Japan has designated the Japan Tobacco (JT) building as the location near the U.S. Embassy for these demonstrators to gather legally and peacefully. Be aware that demonstrations can occur without notice or early warning from the police or Government of Japan officials.  We remind U.S. citizens that even demonstrations intended to be peaceful are unpredictable and can become violent.  You should avoid the areas around the demonstration on September 28 if possible, and exercise caution if you are within the vicinity of any large gatherings, protests, or demonstrations.  Try to stay current with media coverage of local events and be aware of your surroundings at all times.We encourage you to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) for the most up-to-date safety and security information.  Keep all of your information in STEP up-to-date with your current phone numbers and email addresses, so that you can be reached in case of an emergency.You can stay in touch and get Embassy updates by checking the U.S. Embassy Tokyo's website.  Regularly monitor the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Consular Affairs website, where you can find the current Worldwide Caution, Travel Warnings, Travel Alerts, and Country Specific Information.
