Wang Shu-hui (; born 2 December 1955) is a former legislator for the Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan.
Wang Shu-hui has on occasion participated in physical confrontations during her time as a Taiwanese legislator, including one incident involving a thrown shoe.[1] In 2006, Wang shoved a transportation proposal on opening links with mainland China in her own mouth to prevent it being voted upon. She later spat the proposal out and tore it up.[2] [3]
She was defeated by Lin Hung-chih of the Kuomintang for Taipei County constituency 6 in the 2008 legislative election.
Wang subsequently won election to the New Taipei City Council in 2010, 2014, and 2018. In January 2022, during her third term as city councilor, the New Taipei City District Court sentenced Wang to nine years imprisonment for fraud that had taken place during her first term in office. Wang was found to have listed relatives as members of her staff, then collected the wages and subsides set aside for them.[4]
