What happened
China announced new punitive measures against VWAY, a company owned by Puma Shen's father, Shen Tu-cheng, on October 14. Chen Binhua, a spokesperson for China’s Taiwan Affairs Office, stated that the sanctions prohibit the company from conducting transactions or cooperating with Chinese organizations, businesses, and individuals. This follows similar measures imposed in June 2025 on Sicuens International Co. Ltd.

Why it matters
The sanctions restrict the ability of Shen Tu-cheng's family firm to engage in commerce with Chinese entities. This action is part of a broader campaign by the Chinese Communist Party against outspoken critics of the regime.
