Search for lost plane MH370 that vanished with 239 people on board to restart with £55million reward if jet is found

MALAYSIAN authorities have announced that search efforts for missing flight MH370 are set to resume – more than 10 years after the plane vanished.

Officials plan to investigate a fresh search area located in the southern Indian Ocean. This new exploration effort will be carried out by the company Ocean Infinity. In the event that any new wreckage of the jet is discovered within this search area, Ocean Infinity stands to gain a substantial £55 million.

Transport minister Anthony Loke confirmed the government would be launching a fresh search.

He said in a statement that the government has a “responsibility and obligation” to those who lost loved ones when the plane vanished in March 2014.

“Our responsibility and obligation and commitment is to the next of kin. We hope this time will be positive, that the wreckage will be found and give closure to the families,” Loke said.
