Families of MH370 victims appeal to Malaysian minister to
continue search for the aircraft
Authorities from Malaysia, Australia and China announced on
Wednesday that the search for missing flight MH370 had
been suspended after searching more than 120,000 square
kilometers of the Indian Ocean's floor.
The victims' next of kin group, Voice370, however hope to
deliver letters on Monday appealing for the search to
continue.
"The MH370 next of kin implore the government of Malaysia to
use this opportunity to urgently consult and reconsider the
decision to suspend the search for MH370," Voice370 said in a
statement.
"It is also very important to note that ever notable and leading
aviation expert, including those appointed by these ministers
themselves and journalists from the world's leading news
agencies, have spoken against this decision to suspend the
search for MH370."
So far, three pieces of the missing plane have been found off
the coast of Africa. They have been confirmed as coming
from MH370 using specific identification numbers.
The Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 went missing on March
8, 2014, with 239 people on board, after leaving Kuala Lumpur
on a flight to Beijing.
