MH370: no false hope but we’re doing all we can, says Anwar

PM cautions against high hopes of breakthrough, but assures initiatives being taken even if it costs ‘substantial funds’

HAMBURG – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has cautioned against high hopes of finding answers to the 10-year disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, after a modern robotics company said it could reopen the search, reported German Press Agency (dpa). 

A total of 239 people, including more than 150 Chinese and 50 Malaysians, were onboard the aircraft when it disappeared while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014, in what is considered one of aviation’s most haunting mysteries. 

Days before the 10th anniversary of its disappearance this month, Transport Minister Anthony Loke announced that a new search for the wreckage could be launched by US firm Ocean Infinity. 

Anwar said a decision would likely be made in the coming weeks after reviewing a proposal by the Texas-based company. 

However, he warned that relatives of the missing should not expect any breakthroughs. 

“I don’t want to give them a false hope that we can secure an answer,” Anwar told dpa during a visit to Germany. 

“But I want to convince them that we are doing everything possible,” he added – even if it costs “substantial funds.” 

The prime minister, who in 2014 was opposition leader, said he himself was mystified by the plane’s disappearance. 

“I can’t understand, in this day and age, how a huge steel facility like that can just disappear,” Anwar said. – March 16, 2024
