Symbolic photo of Malaysia’s missing plane.
Kuala Lumpur: A passenger plane that was missing for about 10 years and 239 years has not been traced till date. Neither any debris of the plane was found nor anything was known about its passengers till date. This is the situation, the era of high technology is going on in the world. An American company has decided to conduct a search operation for the plane. The Malaysian government has accepted in principle the American company’s ‘no find, no fee’ proposal to resume the search for plane ‘MH370’.
Transport Minister Anthony Locke gave this information on Friday. It is believed that flight MH370 crashed in the southern Indian Ocean about 10 years ago. Locke said cabinet ministers at their meeting last week gave permission to Texas company ‘Ocean Infinity’ to continue exploration at a new site of 15,000 square kilometers in the ocean. “The proposed new discovery areas identified by Ocean Infinity are based on the latest data analysis from experts and researchers,” he said in a statement. The company’s proposal is credible.
