China Twitter’s boss Kathy Chen quits after 7 months in post

The head of Twitter’s China operations has left the firm after seven months in charge, the BBC wrote.
Kathy Chen announced she was leaving following a restructure of the business in Asia, it added.
While Twitter is blocked in China, it lets Chinese advertisers reach a global audience. It is also very popular with Chinese dissidents based in the West, according to the BBC.

Ms Chen is the latest in a string of high-profile Twitter executives to depart from the firm.
Chief technology officer Adam Messinger and chief operating officer Adam Bain have both left recently, added the BBC.
