MH370 saga

 

What a predicament Malaysia is in. It is getting flaks from various people and foreign organizations that it is not giving a clear picture of what happened to the Malaysian Airlines plane, Flight No. MH370.

MAS (Malaysian Airlines) plane Flight No. MH370, with 239 people aboard left the KLIA (Kuala Lumpur International Airport) Airport, on the morning of 8^th March at 12.41 am (Saturday). It was supposed to land in Beijing, China at 6.30 am but never did.

The MAS authorities and distinguished Malaysian government personnels, including the Malaysian Prime Minister himself, did clarify regarding the strange and sudden disappearance of the plane from the  flight control radar, and the various steps being taken to find the missing plane. However, these explanations did not seem to satisfy some ears, actually many ears. Those people seem to want Malaysia to say out-rightly these things; that the plane has crashed somewhere, or dived into the sea, or had landed somewhere. Or, had been hijacked; due to the later discovery that two men had used stolen passports to get on the plane. How can a God fearing country like Malaysia say those statements, without any concrete proof? 

So it is obvious and understandable why the authorities and spokesmen of Malaysia are sticking to this statement; that they really don’t know what, really, happened to the MH370 plane – a well equipped and technically advanced American Boeing 777-200. And they are trying in every possible way to discover the missing plane. The Malaysian authorities do not want to break the people’s hearts with just assumptions and unproven statements; neither do they want to give them false hopes. 

Or, come to think of it. If they really gave them false hopes is that wrong? Hope, is what life is all about. But, rethinking over, it, indeed, looks wrong, so very wrong! Bless their souls.
