Malaysia Continues Search For MH370 Aircraft
JAKARTA - The Malaysian government agreed to continue the search for the Malaysian Airlines MH370 aircraft that lost contact in March 2014.
Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the government had agreed to accept Ocean Infinity's offer, a British company, to conduct a search in a new location covering an area of 15,000 square kilometers (km2) south of the Indian Ocean.
He said the search effort was based on the principle of no find, no fee, so that the Malaysian Government did not have to pay any fees to Ocean Infinity unless the plane debris was found.
"As reported by ANTARA, Friday, December 20, the proposal for a new area search proposed by Ocean Infinity is based on the latest information and the results of a power analysis from experts and researchers," said Anthony.

It is the responsibility and obligation of the government to the family, especially the closest family, that the government will continue the search, as he promised on the 10th anniversary of the MH370 in March.
