WTO in Hong Kong = ambulance makeover?

Several days before the opening of the WTO Ministerial Conference in Hong Kong, a remarkable change took place on a little island in the South China Sea.
The windscreen, side panels and rear windows of the dinky-sized, LPG-powered ambulance that serves the island were outfitted with anti-riot (?) protective metal grills.
Having given it due consideration, consensus among frequenters of the dumbbell-shaped island's watering holes is that the timing of the ambulance makeover and any other events happening elsewhere in the region is merely coincidental. Or, not.
