week2-馬航MH370失聯

Search mission for MH370 in Indian Ocean: Malaysia

June 6, 2014, 12:05 am TWN

KUALA LUMPUR -- The search for missing Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 is to remain in the southern corridor despite the failure to locate the aircraft's black box in the southern Indian Ocean.

Acting transport minister Hishammuddin Hussein said although the search area would be re-evaluated, the hunt was still going to be in the southern Indian Ocean.

“The issue of it being in the southern corridor was never disputed but the question is where. We will rely on the expertise of all those involved to figure out a new search area,” he told reporters after a meeting with four of the ministerial committees set up to handle the crisis here Wednesday.

Last week, the authorities had said that the pings previously picked up by search vessels did not belong to the aircraft's black box and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau had discounted the vicinity as the location of the plane.

Hishammuddin said at least six private companies, including Petronas, Boustead and Deftech, had entered into an open tender to help search for the plane.

On a statement by a British sailor that she saw a plane on fire flying overhead while she was crossing the Indian Ocean in March, Hishammuddin said that all claims would be looked into.

“However, I wish to remind everyone that of all the numerous claims we have received, so far nothing has been proven,” he said.

  1. It is sad to hear that the tragedy of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370. I think that is is very impossible to find the aircraft's black box in the southern because it has disappeared for so long and there is not any clues about the black box. Hope that Malaysian Airlines and Acting transport minister will be more active so that the result will be easier to come out.

  2. The tragedy of the Malaysian Airlines Flight shocked the whole world. Although everyone was eager to find out the wreckage and the black box which involved the information of what really caused the tragedy, so far there was still nothing had been proven. Feeling sad for the catastrophe, what we should do now is to pay attention to the government's latest news and stop spreading any fake rumors. I hope that the truth of what really happened on the airplane can soon be found out. And the fatalities' family can recover from the tragedy as soon as possible.

  3. I felt sorry to hear the sad news that the Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 was missing. The reason why MH370 was missing is still a question. Only find out the black box on the plane that the truth will come out.
