Updated at 4.47pm:
An Indonesian migrant workers? association claims the Indonesian consulate has warned them not to participate in any protests during next week?s World Trade Organisation ministerial meeting.
But the consulate on Monday denied these claims. It said it had only advised Indonesians in Hong Kong to be careful about protests. 
The Association of Indonesian Migrant Workers in Hong Kong said a radio broadcast of an announcement from the Indonesian consulate had advised workers not to go to Victoria Park next week. It said they could get hurt during WTO demonstrations.
 
The association said the announcement was made on a morning radio programme on Metro Plus ? broadcast in Indonesian on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
It also warned that if any workers were injured during protests their employers? insurance policies would not cover them.

Association chairwoman Eni Lestari said she was upset by the announcement. She said it was ?very bad propaganda? from the Indonesian government. 
But a spokesman for the Indonesian consulate, Mr Nugroho, told SCMP.com the consulate had never released a radio announcement on the upcoming WTO meeting.

He said there was only an article from the consul-general published in the monthly paper Suala last month. This had advised people to be ?careful and cautious? when they were in Victoria Park next week. 
?We are in no position to advise our people not to go to Victoria Park. Hong Kong is a democratic [city],? said Mr Nugroho, who like most Indonesians uses one name.
But Ms Lestari said employment agencies for Indonesian domestic workers had also given similar warnings to their employees, warning workers to avoid Victoria Park next week. 
It is understood the Asosiasi PPTKI Hong Kong ? the umbrella group for 175 employment agencies for Indonesian domestic workers ? issued guidelines last month advising employers not to let their workers take any leave during the WTO meeting next week.
