The demonstrations attracted each about several hundred people.

Other actions included a hunger strike of the political prisoners Marco Camenisch and
Erdogan E., banner drops in St.Gallen, graffiti, the fundraiser "Tour de Lorraine", and paint, stone and firework attacks against VW, KPMG, Ernst & Young, SECO and DAP.

The protesters solidarised themselves in the declaration with the 5300 striking workers of VW, whose plant in Forest/Brussels (Belgium) is endangered with closure and relocation.
SECO seems to be the economic state department whereas DAP seems to be something like a repressive secret service?, but they also seem to do deportations.
KPMG and Ernst & Young, Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu are advisory firms who seem to specialise in undermining trade unions, relocating of factories into low wage countries and also care for the rich and powerful on how to evade taxes. KPMG, Ernest &Young and VW are partners/sponsors of the WEF.
