Huawei Say’s Happy New Year Via An iPhone

A report by Reuters news agency – citing an internal company memo – said that the Huawei staff involved in the Twitter blunder had been demoted and would be receiving reduced salaries. The new year message was quickly removed from Huawei’s official Twitter feed but was shared by users of the social media site. The memo went on to say this was linked to “VPN problems” with a desktop computer and it had “caused damage to the Huawei brand”
