Cathay Pacific CEO stepped down after China’s civil aviation regulator issued a major safety risk warning to Cathay and set out a list of demands, including giving full information on crew flying into its airspace [1]. The news is first reported by China's state-owned CCTV [2].

The old technique of threatening company’s business with mainland, unless it does what’s favorable for the political system. Easier to handle if you’re based in the US or elsewhere, but China’s closer here so the situation is challenging.
