FILE - China's Shuai Peng plays a shot against Romania's Sorana Cirstea during their first round match of the French Open tennis tournament at the Roland Garros stadium, in Paris, France. Tuesday, May 30, 2017. Chinese authorities have squelched virtually all online discussion of sexual assault accusations apparently made by the Chinese professional tennis star against a former top government official, showing how sensitive the ruling Communist Party is to such charges.
China has largely suppressed a #MeToo movement that flourished briefly in 2018 and is forging ahead with the Beijing Winter Olympics in February despite boycott calls by activists and some overseas politicians over China’s human rights record. The post was quickly deleted from her verified account on Weibo, a leading Chinese social media platform, but screenshots of the explosive accusation quickly spread across China’s internet. She has not appeared in public since then, raising questions about her whereabouts and whether she is being detained.
Searches for Peng Shuai’s name on China’s Sogou search engine turn up only articles about her tennis career. Her account on Weibo no longer allows comments, and no results turn up if people search for her Weibo account. Peng has played in three Olympics. The International Olympic Committee said Thursday in a statement that, “We have seen the latest reports and are encouraged by assurances that she is safe.”
There is no me too movement in China CCP. Boycott China Olympics
Don't worry -- any government would NEVER lie, and the Chinese government is no exception. /s
Boycott the Olympics Games.
I wonder why that happened before the Beijing Olympics. I think the parties need to come out and explain so that it does not develop into a political issue and call many boycotts.
实际情况是，中国的办事方式与西方并不相同。中国是一党主政国家，需要负全责。彭帅这么大的事，不可能不调查，也不可能瞒得住，但需要时间。彭帅的事不会隐瞒，但不会一蹴而就。西方舆论一向是在空档期很活跃，真正水落石出，就装聋卖傻了。所以，中国发展很快、改进很多，西方还是踏步不前。
They'll cook her another week or so to get her where she'll stand up in public and say what they want her to say.
… yes, and the COVID19 originated from the Chinese wet market … 🤫
It reads like a note from a hostage written by a robot
Yeah...they're trying to silence her.
Somethings not right here…😳
