Malaysia to resume search for missing flight MH370 after new lead revealed by Ocean Infinity
PUTRAJAYA, Dec 20 — The government today agreed “in principle” to accept Ocean Infinity’s no-find-no-fee proposal to continue searching for MH370’s wreckage based on a new lead, more than ten years after the plane mysteriously disappeared.
Minister of Transport Anthony Loke announced the decision at a post-cabinet meeting here this afternoon.
“The Cabinet has agreed in principle to accept Ocean Infinity’s proposal to resume the search for MH370’s wreckage in a new search area estimated at 15,000km per square based on the no-find-no-fee principle,” he said.
“This means the government will not have to pay unless the wreckage is found.”
Loke added the new search location is based on the latest data obtained after ten years of analysis by experts and researchers.
“This search proposal is a sound or credible proposal and warrants the Malaysian government’s consideration since the plane is registered with us,” the minister said.
