Calling it a day: Mueller says in an internal memo that his decision to leave is due to personal reasons that are beyond his control. – Bloomberg

PETALING JAYA: In a dramatic message to the employees of Malaysia Airlines Bhd (MAS), the first non-Malaysian handpicked to head the national carrier, Christoph Mueller, who will be exiting the national airline in September, told them that “the show must go on!” in an internal memo seen by StarBiz.

Mueller, who took over from Ahmad Jauhari Yahya last May as chief executive officer (CEO) and managing director and undertook the restructuring of Malaysia Airlines System Bhd that later morphed into Malaysia Airlines Bhd, would have served just 15 months. He would now be serving out his six-month notice period.
