DAILY updates on the search of Malaysian flight MH370 will be compiled into weekly reports for everyone on Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia’s (CAAM) website, said its chairman today.

Azharuddin Abdul Rahman said an operation centre has been established at CAAM’s office in Putrajaya and updates will be rolled out soon.

The hunt for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 resumed on January 10 with Ocean Infinity Ltd a US seabed exploration firm.

Ocean Infinity will only get paid if it finds either the location of the aircraft’s wreckage or its flight recorder within 90 search days.

“It is 90 days of search operation, not counting the days of transiting to the port because one cycle of a ship is 26 days … for resupply and refuelling.

“So the search will end in June,” Azharuddin said at a press conference at the Day of Remembrance for MH370 in Kuala Lumpur today.

The initial search for MH370 that went missing on March 8, 2014, en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing was suspended in January last year after investigators scoured a 120,000 sq km search area determined via a satellite analysis of the plane’s trajectory.

Azharuddin said Putrajaya was in discussions with various organisations and civil aviation agencies such as on the Australian Transport Safety Bureau on a recovery plan.

“This will be finalised in the next two weeks.”

Meanwhile, the Day of Remembrance for MH370 organised by Voice 370 saw tributes to the families of the victims, multifaith prayers, talks and performances.

Among the attendees were comedian Harith Iskander, Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng and Seputeh MP Theresa Kok.

Jacquita Gonzales, wife of steward Patrick Gomes said she has not lost hope.

“No matter what, they will never be forgotten. They will always be our heroes.

“Knowing Patrick, he would have done his best,” she said.

Volunteer Foo Yen Chien, 27, said it was meaningful to get everyone together for the event.

“Although I can’t help in the search, this serves as a way I can contribute,” she said.

Domnic Alexander, 48 who works in a control centre of an airport, said changes were made to the aviation industry since MH370.

“For Malaysia, it will soon be mandatory for all commercial air traffic to have tracking data for airports.

“I have seen steps taken from a logistical standpoint but it is not much because it is not easy to change a lot of these things mostly because they are expensive,” he said adding he and his wife came to support the famlies. – March 3, 2018.
