We should not mix between the law and its implementation (practice).
Volunteer groups and charitable fund raising should get authorities approval. If the authorities are keeping their eyes closed about such activities does not mean that one can simply decided to start a volunteer group of raise funds for any purpose.
Also doing any type of work not related to your sponsor or yourself needs approval. MOL/MOI inspectors simply visit work places and check those working there and their visas. They consider and expect everyone working for an entity to be sponsored by the entity or he/she will be immediately arrested and deported.
Somebody gave the example of Asian games. All the volunteers were given clearance prior to joining the games.
