Jean Liu Qing, president of China’s largest ride-hailing platform Didi Chuxing, said the murder of two female passengers last year and subsequent safety crisis at the company hit harder than her personal struggle with cancer three years earlier.
Liu recalled facing her battle with breast cancer in 2015 with “a little bit of anxiety, pity and fear”, but the experience was “personally far from the crushing blow from [the Hitch service] last year”, she said in a recent interview with Chinese tech media Huxiu.com. “Everyone has the feeling of guilt,” Liu added.
