Malaysian govt will fully cooperate if newest MH370 search successful, says PM Anwar

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 25 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has assured that the MADANI Government will provide full cooperation if efforts to locate Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 yield results.

Anwar emphasised the importance of balancing the need to search for the aircraft with ensuring the most prudent use of public funds.

“More than a decade after the aircraft vanished from radar, many questions and mysteries remain unresolved.

“Not only the families and next of kin, but the public also deserve answers. Therefore, the government will extend its full cooperation should the search achieve the long-awaited breakthrough,” he said in a Facebook post today.

Last Friday, Transport Minister Anthony Loke announced that on Dec 13 the Cabinet had agreed in principle to accept an offer from marine robotics company Ocean Infinity to resume the search for the wreckage of MH370.
