The Search For Missing Plane MH370 To Be Finally Called Off. by HMZi: 4:03pm On Jan 06, 2017 |
Malaysia’s Transport Minister, Liow Tiong Lai,
on Friday said that the search for the missing
Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 is to end
within two weeks.
Lai said that despite the passengers’ relatives
demand for an extension, the search is in its
final stages but said he still hoped for a
breakthrough over the plane’s location.
“We are on the final lap within these two
weeks.
“We hope we can find the plane and we pray
hard that the search will bear fruit on how to
locate MH370,’’ he said.
MH370, which was bound for Beijing from
Kuala Lumpur International Airport, disappeared
on March 8, 2014 with 239 people on board.
Experts believe the plane went massively off
course.
The Australian Transport Security Bureau is
leading the investigation, which has been
centred on 120,000 square kilometers of the
Indian Ocean.
Liow said that a tripartite meeting with the
Australian and Chinese governments would be
held once the search is completed and a report
produced.
“There are a lot of assumptions; we cannot
base anything on assumptions.
“We need credible truth to look for the plane,
so we are waiting for the final report,’’ Lai said.
The last search vessel set off to make a final
sweep across the southern Indian Ocean last
month.
The families of the passengers who vanished
have been adamant that the search should
continue, especially after some experts said
investigators may be looking in the wrong
place.
