Hidden Agendas

Of late, we have multiple groups of people with different reasons to protest openly against the government.
The police force didn't allow them to protest via gatherings/marching. This deemed their gathering illegal.
ISA was mentioned as a means to punish culprits who defy the government's call to not protest via those
methods but only through the ballot box. So, what's the government's hidden agenda for all these they
mentioned through the local mass media? Anyhow, I'm not voting for them...they have too many
selfish agendas...
