Hong Kong Airlines directors slapped with injunction
In an ongoing battle to gain control of Hong Kong Airlines, 4 of its board members have been served with a court order preventing them from making business related-decisions on the airline. The carrier confirmed the order, saying “the orders are temporary, pending further confirmation by the court and are subject to change.” According to the South China Morning Post, the injunction was taken by the airline’s former director Zhong Guosong against incumbent chairman Hou Wei and directors Wang Liya, Sun Jianfeng and Tang Kit. April 16, Zhong led a hostile take-over of the company and declared himself as chairman with a new board of directors. Third-party security and lawyers were called in to deal with the issue. The Hong Kong govt gave the airline an April 24 deadline to confirm its chairman and board members. <br/>
