The Malaysian government has told relatives of those lost on MH370 that it is interested in a new search for the Boeing 777 as the tenth anniversary of its disappearance approaches.

But is it really serious?

Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke said UK exploration company Ocean Infinity (OI) had been invited to discuss a 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 on Sunday AAP reported.

Ocean Infinity searched in 2018 with the Malaysian government offering to pay $70 million if it found the plane. of concern is the fact that OI has presented a search proposal several times since 2018 to the Malaysian government but they have said there is no new evidence and brushed aside any deal.

This however is not true.

Richard Godfrey’s groundbreaking work has been peer-reviewed and refined and the location of MH370 has been identified within a 30km radius about 1560km west of Perth Western Australia. The location is just outside the previous search area and is consistent with the Inmarsat Satellite data and the debris drift analysis of the University of Western Australia. All the evidence lines up and points to this location.

With new robust search data and a no find no fee proposal so why are the Malaysian Government so against starting a search?

We believe that finding the resting place of the Boeing 777 will open the Malaysian Government to compensation claims as it is almost certain that the perpetrator of this tragedy is Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah.

In depth investigations found the captain 'exhibited self-destructive and obsessive online behavior that should have raised a red flag with Malaysia Airlines'. For more on this read SENSATIONAL REVELATIONS POINT FINGER AT MH370 CAPTAIN

AAP said that Loke said Malaysia would talk to Australia about cooperation in resuming the search once Ocean Infinity’s proposal was approved by Malaysia’s cabinet.

The question remains though, is the Malaysian Government really serious about finding out where the plane is and what happened?
