This evening I was briefed by representatives from the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB). They informed me that Inmarsat, the UK company that provided the satellite data which indicated the northern and southern corridors, has been performing further calculations on the data. Using a type of analysis never before used in an investigation of this sort, they have been able to shed more light on MH370’s flight path.
Based on their new analysis, Inmarsat and the AAIB have concluded that MH370 flew along the southern corridor, and that its last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean, west of Perth.
This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that, according to this new data, flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean.
We will be holding a press conference tomorrow with further details. In the meantime, we wanted to inform you of this new development at the earliest opportunity. We share this information out of a commitment to openness and respect for the families, two principles which have guided this investigation.
Malaysia Airlines have already spoken to the families of the passengers and crew to inform them of this development. For them, the past few weeks have been heartbreaking; I know this news must be harder still. I urge the media to respect their privacy, and to allow them the space they need at this difficult time.
Sebak. Sedih. You can somehow feel the silence and sadness around the world.. Takde ape yg mampu diungkapkan selain teruskan berdoa. Jika benar MH370 terhempas dan tiada penumpang yg selamat, mari kita berdoa supaya jasad mereka dapat ditemui. Dan doakan juga kotak hitam tersebut dapat dijumpai.. Walaupun takde keluarga saya dalam pesawat tersebut tapi rasa sedih di hati ni hanya Allah yang tahu. 17 hari misi pencarian dan seluruh dunia mengharapkan berita yg baik2 tetapi berita ini yg kami terima. Allahu.. Bayangkan perasaan keluarga penumpang dan crew saat ni, sedih mereka tidak terhingga.. Tabahlah dan redhalah, walaupun sukar..
And we all can see the saddest in our PM eyes.. And this picture burst me into tears.. CEO MAS..
"CEO MAS menangis sambil dipeluk DCA dan diperhatikan dgn sedih oleh DS Shahidan Kassim.."
Sekarang ni, semua menunggu untuk sidang media yg akan datang.. i am so speechless, tak tahu nak taip apa lagi.. Keep on praying yea semua, berdoa..
- THE END -
