Due to the recent Ethiopian Airline Disaster as it is with any aviation disaster , wreckage and bodies or survivors must be looked for but for Malaysian flight 370 is still in the dark as to what happened , the Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has promised to continue the search for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, almost five years to the day since it disappeared.
Mahathir said “For as long as there is hope, we will continue to think of ways and means to find out” the plane’s fate.”We intend to continue” the search, he told Danica Weeks, whose husband Paul was one of 239 on board the plane when it vanished in 2014 en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, in what has become one of the world’s biggest aviation mysteries.”Losing an aircraft is one thing, but losing people is something else,” Mahathir said. “You can’t sleep thinking about what has happened, you keep on asking yourself that question and you get no answer.
“The official search for MH370, carried out by Malaysia, China and Australia, was called off in January 2017, after costing upward of $150 million. A second search, carried out on a no-find, no-fee basis by US-based company Ocean Infinity, ended last year after a fruitless 90-day sweep of the southern Indian Ocean.Ocean Infinity said it had covered 112,000 square kilometers of the ocean floor, but ultimately found nothing.
