The recent announcement of MYAirline’s suspension of all flights caught the employees off guard, who were left in the dark about the company’s sudden closure.
According to an employee who wished to remain anonymous, even the security guards of MYAirline were not spared from this ordeal, as they were also left unpaid for months and went on strike in protest.
Some people are crying if they can’t get two months’ salary, said the netizen in a post on Xiaohongshu, a Chinese social media and e-commerce platform.
