Abstract: The impact of uncontrollable peaceful assembly in a nation may impact on the economic growth, nation’s reputation, as well as public order. A peaceful assembly is an assembly that has been approved by the authorities for individuals or group of people from Non-Government Bodies (NGO) or Political Party to demonstrate their perspective and emotions with respect to any issues. These assemblies are aimed at curbing activities of street protests that bring more damage or vandalism to property and sometimes endanger the safety and lives of the people surround. In conjunction with this matter, any nation including Malaysia ought to dependably be prepared for the national business continuity plan. In Malaysia, this peaceful assembly is a string of street protest BERSIH activities from year 2007 until 2016 that have brought many losses to the country's economy in terms of tourism sector, foreign investment and national security. Thus, this paper will outline and identify the risk mitigation to overcome or control any kind of the uncontrollable peaceful assembly event particularly in Malaysia.
