Whoa! Suddenly, #PengShuai is showing up everywhere, doing video calls, attending dinners, giving out prizes, all according to #CCP sources anyways. She “doesn’t want to talk to foreign media” though, says the state media.

According to #CCP’s mouthpiece, #PengShuai has spoken again, to accuse #WTA of being unfair in its decision to stop all programmes in #China. We just want to ask, WHY CAN’T SHE SPEAK DIRECTLY TO US? She does not need an owl messenger!

Women's Tennis Association suspends all tournaments in China amid concern for female tennis player #PengShuai
Chinese female tennis player Peng Shuai, aged 35, disappeared from public view for three weeks after accusing Chinese former Vice-Premier #ZhangGaoli of sexual assault.
#WTA chief Steve Simon said he had "serious doubts" that Peng was "free, safe and not subject to intimidation".
"In good conscience, I don't see how I can ask our athletes to compete there," he said.
News of the WTA suspending tournaments in China has been removed from the internet in the country, although the WTA's account on Chinese social media site Weibo is still available.

TLDR: She's clearly under some sort of threat. // After #PengShuai's new "interview", the Women's Tennis Association (#WTA) said it was still concerned that she was being censored by the state. What touched us was WTA's statement when Peng first disappeared: "In good conscience, I don’t see how I can ask our athletes to compete there when Peng Shuai is not allowed to communicate freely and has seemingly been pressured to contradict her allegation of sexual assault".

PS. This #Singaporean newspaper Lianhe Zaobao always shares CCP's People's Daily articles... so you can imagine their stance 🙃
