[Breaking] WSJ "Bill Gates Had Inappropriate Relationship with MS Female Employee"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Suhwan] It has been revealed that in early last year, the Microsoft (MS) board of directors demanded Bill Gates, the founder of MS, to resign from his director position over allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a female employee within the company.

According to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) on the 16th (local time), at the end of 2019, a female employee at MS reported to the company that she had an inappropriate relationship with Gates for several years, prompting the board to conduct an internal investigation. It was reported that the board intended to request Gates' resignation as the investigation was nearing completion.
