Singaporeans cook Curry for anti-immigration protest

Below is an article from the local newspaper.  Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking when the organize events.  This is a good example.  As I undertstand it, in Singapore they have organized a curry cooking event to protest immigration.  Hmmmm....what???  Don't you think this might be counterproductive?

This would be like the United States organizing a taco luncheon to protest Mexico immigration. 

Maddness!
