10 years of MH370's disappearance: Malaysia may renew search for missing plane

Malaysia's Transport Minister Anthony Loke said that they may renew the hunt for MH370 after a US company tried to find the plane in 2018 and proposed a fresh search in the southern Indian Ocean where the Malaysia Airlines plane is believed to have crashed a decade ago. He also said that he would invite Texas-based marine robotics firm Ocean Infinity to brief him on its latest “no find, no fee” proposal. (Reuters photo)

The Malaysian transport minister said that the US seabed exploration firm Ocean Infinity had been invited to discuss its latest search proposal after two previous failed attempts. "The Malaysian government is committed to the search (for MH370) and the search must go on," Loke said at a remembrance event. (AFP photo)
