Betex executives quit over China
Betex lost its two most senior executives after the Aim-listed lottery and gaming company failed to get assurances from the Chinese authorities they would not be arrested if they set foot on Chinese soil to inquire about senior staff detained by police last month.Peter Greenhill, chief executive, and Stuart Barker, finance director, stepped down on the 25 May because they believed unless they could travel into China unhindered it was impossible for them to perform their roles.
The company has been seeking guarantees about their safe passage, but none have been forthcoming.
Betex失去了两位最高级别的管理人士，此前这家在另项投资市场(Aim)上市的彩票及博彩公司未能从中国当局得到保证，即如果他们踏上中国领土、调查上月中国警方逮捕其高层员工相关事宜的话，他们不会被逮捕。
公司首席执行官彼得•格林希尔(Peter Greenhill)、财务总监斯图尔特•巴克(Stuart Barker)于5月25日辞职，因为他们认为，除非能够不受阻碍地进入中国，否则他们就不可能履行自己的职责。
该公司一直在寻求他们安全进出中国的保证，但迄今没有迹象表明会得到此类保证。
