In a yet another blow for the struggling micro-blogging website Twitter, its head of Asia-Pacific business Aliza Knox has decided to move on after a near-five year stint.
Knox built out Twitter's presence in Asia with an office in Singapore that currently spans nine locations with over 100 people on payroll, TechCrunch reported on Tuesday.
"She pioneered Twitter's Asia Pacific business (outside of Japan), championed our expansion into new markets and businesses such as Indonesia and China export advertising, set up our Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore, and led our diversity initiatives across the region," Twitter said in a statement.

After Jaitly, Singh announced that he has quit the company.
Following this, the micro-blogging website appointed Maya Hari as its new Managing Director for South East Asia and India who was reporting to Knox.
