The group has a permit to gather at Old Stadium park ahead of Saturday's march.

"In the spirit of the whole occupy movement happening across the country a place where people can come down and discuss politics networking sit down share some food have some water sit in the shade sing some songs play some drums make some signs you name it,"says Liz Rees, World Can't Wait.

Protestors will march toward the Hale Koa hotel where President Obama and the first lady will be hosting a dinner for the world leaders.

The group expects several hundred protestors to turn out for the march.

I too expect a huge crowd to turn out to protest APEC. I hope though, that the protests will be peaceful, and not turn violent like that of Seattle's APEC that turned violent. I hope that HPD is ready to protect Honolulu in case some of these protestors turn out to be hard-core nutjobs.
