We were cheated by the Malaysian government, claim relatives

BEIJING, March 25:

Tensions ran high as grief-ridden angry relatives of the Chinese passengers aboard the missing Malaysia Airline flight MH370 protested outside the Malaysian Embassy here today, demanding answers from the airline and accusing the Malaysian government of not disclosing information to them.

A horde of family members shouted “Malaysian government has cheated us” and “Malaysia, return our relatives” as they marched peacefully and held banners during the protest.

Police formed a human wall outside the embassy, preventing them from entering the building.

The relatives held signs that read: “MH370, Don’t let us wait too long!” and “1.3 billion people are waiting to greet the plane”. They wore matching T-shirts that said: “Best of luck to MH370, return home safely”.

“We’ve waited for 18 days and still, you make us wait. How long are we supposed to hang on?” a woman surnamed Zhang said.

Photographs posted by Chinese media showed protesters holding banners that said: “Malaysia Airlines! You owe us an explanation”.

An Malaysian embassy official said “we are still handling this matter, and have yet to release any information publicly”.

Earlier, a statement from family members had denounced the Kuala Lumpur government and its national carrier as “executioners”.

Most of those on board the scheduled Kuala Lumpur to Beijing flight were Chinese.

Former MCA president, Ong Tee Keat, recently called on MCA to accept the truth about Kajang by-election. Some of our readers' commented on this as well:

1Mockery: It is not that MCA alone was rejected by voters but BN as a whole that was rejected.

It’s just unfortunate that Kajang voters are largely educated group, apart from some old folks who feel that only Umno or BN is the only party that can run the country.

Going by the trend, BN is in its last few years in power. The old folks will soon be gone. The younger more educated ones will form the bulk of the voters.

HELLO WORLD, HERE'S PROOF OF UMNO-BRED STUPIDITY: Lawmaker wants Internet CENSORED to calm Chinese anger over MH370



KUALA LUMPUR - Putrajaya must restrict information on the Internet about Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 to protect Malaysians from the rage of Chinese families who lost their relatives to the doomed plane, Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin said today.

According to the Kinabatangan MP, continued bad news about the plane that is now assumed lost with no survivors among the 239 people on board could move Chinese citizens to take out their anger on Malaysians abroad.

“With our uncontrolled media, everything can be uploaded to their heart’s content. What will then happen?” Bung asked in Parliament today.

“What will happen if Chinese citizens believe in such issues? They will riot and torture any Malaysians wherever they are. We don’t want this to happen.”

Bung made his remark when he, as a representative of the Barisan Nasional Backbenchers Club, was debating an emergency motion on MH370 proposed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak earlier.

Najib this morning submitted an emergency motion in Dewan Rakyat to mourn the fate of passengers and crew on the missing airliner, expressing Putrajaya’s condolences over the incident.

The emergency motion was seconded by Arau MP Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim. Representatives from the main parties will debate the motion today.

This comes as scores of angry relatives of the Chinese passengers aboard flight MH370 set out on a protest march to the Malaysian embassy in Beijing today to demand more answers about the fate of the missing plane and those on board.

Around 200 family members, some in tears, linked arms and shouted slogans including “The Malaysian government are murderers” and “We want our relatives back”.

The move to protest outside the embassy took place hours after relatives reacted with grief and anguish to Malaysia’s confirmation late last night of their worst fears about the flight.

China has demanded that Kuala Lumpur hand over the British satellite data that led it to conclude that the Beijing-bound Malaysia Airlines flight crashed at sea and that none of the 239 people aboard survived. Two-thirds of the passengers were Chinese.

The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission announced in 2013 that it has blocked 2,753 websites for violating the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 and other regulations last year. -Malaymail

Clueless politicians and rivalry make search for MH370 even harder, says ex-Najib aide
With the world's eyes following every move it made in the search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, Malaysian authorities could have done better in devising a comprehensive major emergency response mechanism, said an opinion piece published today in China's Global Times. The opinion piece written by Oh Ei Sun, a senior fellow with the S....


The opinion piece written by Oh Ei Sun, a senior fellow with the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, said that at times conflicting statements issued by various Malaysian authorities, ranging from transport to the military, had only caused confusion and further grief.

Oh was also a former political secretary to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

"This negative perception of Malaysian handling of the present incident may be caused by two features in Malaysia's political environment that are alien to most Chinese," Oh said in the piece titled "Malaysia’s political rivalries bedevil search for lost MH370 flight".

First, said Oh, Malaysia's public service system distinguished between civil servants who were career professionals and members of the administration, who were politicians.

Serving civil servants could not become the political heads of their departments, he said, adding that members of the administration were ministers, deputy ministers and political secretaries.

However, all served at the pleasure of the prime minister, who was, in turn, answerable to a democratically elected Parliament, Oh said.

"Such politicians obviously are often not professional or even well versed in the particular ministry they happen to head.

"And unlike China or the United States, Malaysia has not installed a 'spokesperson' system. The press conferences are chaired by the various politicians in person. When facing the onslaught of the international media, some politicians shine while others wane," Oh said in his Global Times piece.

The second factor, said Oh, was that on the surface, Malaysia practised a centralised political system in which the prime minister or ruling party president devised policies and subordinate departments executed them.

In reality, to make it to the top of the Malaysian political hierarchy, Oh said, politicians needed to have a group of influential supporters.

"These political supporters, in turn, grab more supporters, and the same pattern persists all the way down to the level of the average voters.

"In order to retain their support, high-level politicians have to dish out various types of political largesse, most prominent of which is a ministership. Once appointed a minister, the politician will typically develop his ministry into essentially a personal fiefdom.

"And since rivalry is rife among most politicians, inter-departmental cooperation or even just coordination is extremely difficult, even in the face of a major crisis."

Oh said this could explain why it took almost a week before a lead agency was appointed to coordinate the handling of the MH370 search efforts.

"Malaysian political reality dictates that some ministers will not accept being led by others, for fear of losing face.

"But paradoxically, as the resolution of the present incident may drag on and thus attract further criticism of weak leadership, understandably none of the ministers concerned is particularly keen to shoulder the lead." – March 24, 2014.

Washington paper says MH370 saga shows Malaysia must be more open

Putrajaya's last-ditch pivot for openness in the search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has not impressed its partners - be it Beijing that demands more information on satellite data or Washington bemused with contradictions in the hunt for the lost passenger jet.

A strongly-worded editorial from Washington Post today put the entire saga of the plane's disappearance and Malaysia's handling of the search as an unfolding disaster that reflects the country's need for immediate change.

"It is entirely premature to say what happened to the airplane. But it is not too early for Malaysia’s leaders to draw lessons from their unsteady performance of recent weeks and commit themselves to transparency and openness.

"Their alternative is not working," said the editorial headlined "Malaysia’s airliner response exposes a ruling malaise".

The six-paragraph article written by the paper's editorial board sketched out what it felt was wrong about Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's announcement last night on the lost MAS plane's last position and the airline's statement on the matter.

Why make crash finding only after 12 days?


MH370 The timing of Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's announcement that MH370 fell into the Indian Ocean last night became a point of contention at the press briefing by Malaysian authorities today.

A reporter from China had questioned why Malaysia had made such a conclusion only last night although satellite data cited was available since March 12.

To this, the investigation team said there was no intended delay and that time was needed for further corroboration and analysis.

Acting Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said that satellite data alone is not conclusive as shown when the search was concentrated in the South China Sea.

"We received satellite data from China sighting (debris) in the South China Sea (and) redirected our search in areas we had already searched, and it was negative," he said, to illustrate his point.

Department of Civil Aviation director-general Azharuddin Abdul Rahman added the satellite data received on March 12 needed to be analysed as on its own, it was only a series of "handshakes" between the plane equipment and the satellite.

"As a result of the analysis by the United States team, together with Federal Aviation Administration, (the team) came up with the two corridors and this was announced in Mar 15.

"It took that long because it needed a lot of work to analyse the sixth handshake. Yesterday, there was refinement of the information on the sixth handshake and this is to be refined again," he said.

Remote chance of survival

The satellite in question is owned by Inmarsat, a British satellite telecommunications company. The satellite is geostationary and sits above the Indian Ocean.

To another question, MAS CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said that given the available evidence, it is highly unlikely to find any survivors.

"The plane would have very little fuel by then and there are no land mass nearby. I suppose we can conclude it must have went down in the water.

"That is a very remote area. We are talking about (spending) 18 days (in the water)... For anyone to survive that long is extremely, extremely remote," he said.

However, Hishammuddin assured that search and rescue efforts are still underway.

"God willing, we will save (them) if they still can be saved," he said.

Anonymous_1395111695 It is really sad to see all these top civil servants, the security and military chiefs being torn to pieces by their own people. What has now happened is that the people have no qualms about critising these people who exhibited such incompetence and have begun to lose the fear they had of the authority. For far too long the Malaysians have been cowed with sedition, selective prosecution and persecution. It bodes well for the country when the citizens question the people they have elected and their civil servants without fear. Let us hope that this sad tragedy will bring about real transformation in governance of the country. The long suffering Malaysians need this. Najib are you ready to bring about this and earn yourself a respectable place in the history of Malaysia?

Siang Malam When a loyal and dedicated officer like Mejar Zaidi is persecuted and prosecuted for voicing his concern about unfair election practices like the use of indelible ink... what can we say of an institution like RMAF? It's clear it has become a political apparatus of the ruling party UMNO and that's why we see all the shit displayed to the world media in the last 18 days...


2 Tim 1:7 The stupid and short sighted policy of appointing people to positions in the public service and GLC's not on merit but merely because they are 'Malays' has been disastrous, and is an important link in the chain of events culminating in the disappearance of MH370. Now is the time for us ethnic Chinese and Indian citizens to break the fetters of the Apartheid which makes us 3rd class citizens by initiating a class action in the International Court of Justice.

Under fire, MAS CEO says will weigh resignation ‘later’ - See more at: http://www.themalaymailonline.com/malaysia/article/under-fire-mas-ceo-says-will-weigh-resignation-later#sthash.0h36N3QL.dpuf

SEPANG, March 25 — Malaysia Airlines chief executive Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said he will decide “later” if he should resign over criticism of the airline’s handling of the flight MH370 crisis.

MAS, whose plane disappeared on March 8 with 239 people on board, is under heavy fire for its handling of the incident and alleged treatment of family members of the missing passengers and crew.

“Will I resign? (It is a) personal decision I will take later,” he said at a press conference here.

The MAS chief was asked by a reporter whether he would quit following yesterday’s announcement by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak that aircraft ended its flight “somewhere in the Indian Ocean.”

Ahmad Jauhari stressed that MAS did its best to inform the families of the missing passengers and crew “as quickly as possible” last night.

The airline earlier was condemned for its decision to use text messages to break the news to some of the relatives, after the short messaging service (SMS) texts it sent was shared by news outlets and across social media yesterday.

In a statement this morning, MAS clarified it sent text messages informing families of those on board flight MH370 that the plane was assumed lost, only to supplement personal notifications and phone calls.

Today, MAS explained that they had personally contacted and called the next of kin prior to PM Najib’s announcement last night

Ahmad Jauhari previously gave his assurance that the families will be the first to know of new discoveries on the fate of MH370 and the people on board.

Search efforts are now converging in the south of the Indian Ocean where Australia has searched since March 20 for signs of the plane that has been missing for over two weeks.

Better to run & sell MAS shares.

Kedutaan Malaysia di China diserang..!! Orang China menganggap pemimpin Malaysia sebagai "pembunuh" ekoran tragedi MH370.
Rakyat China sedang berdemo didpn kedutaan Malaysia di China.

# Dgn rakyat sendiri boleh lah kau control media spin sampai hancing, dgn dunia pun ko nak perbodohkan memang silap besar lah Najib !!!

IF TO BRING BACK 237 PASSENGERS AND CREW IS IMPOSSIBLE,
LET US AT LEAST BRING BACK THE TRUTH!

The announcement made by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak in a hastily convened press conference last night is heartbreaking.

The loss of MH 370 is not only the loss of Malaysian Airlines, but also the loss of Malaysia, and also all humankind.

If at this stage, it is seemed impossible to bring back 237 passengers and crew, we should at the very least be committed to bring back the truth. Why was the flight en route to Beijing ended up in the southern region of Indian Ocean? Hopefully through the effort of possible largest ever multi-nation search and rescue team, we will be able to bring answer and peace to the family and friends of the passengers and crew in the near future.

While the tragedy of MH 370 seems to be unalterable, we must do our best to avoid similar tragedy in the future.

It worries many when it was reported that a MAS plane had hit flying ducks about 10.45pm last Friday while landing at the Kathmandu airport in Nepal and yesterday a MAS A330-300 Airbus, bound for Incheon, South Korea, had to divert to Hong Kong today because of an "inoperative aircraft generator". All these incidents have made people ponder if the aircrafts of MAS are duly maintained.

Even though there is nothing conclusive to indicate that there were any errors or faults on the part of MAS for the tragedy of MH 370, it is imperative for MAS to take drastic and immediate action in order to restore public confidence.

Last but not least, let’s continue to pray for the wellbeing of the family of the passengers and crew while the search mission is ongoing.

China demands satellite data on MH370
March 25, 2014

The Chinese government also urged Malaysia not to stop effort to locate the crashed jetliners.

MH 370 China SateliteBEIJING: China has demanded Malaysia to provide satellite data which led to its judgement that flight MH370 ended in the Indian Ocean, Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Xie Hangsheng said here on Monday night.

“We demand the Malaysian side to make clear the specific basis on which they come to this judgement,” Xie said during an urgent meeting with Malaysian Ambassador Iskandar Sarudin in Beijing.

He demanded the Malaysian side to provide all information and evidence related to the analysis of satellite data.

Xie urged Malaysia to continue all the relevant work including search and rescue for the missing plane, which carried 239 people.

Xie emphasised that the search and rescue work must not stop at the moment.

Chinese maritime authorities said late Monday night China will send more vessels to the waters of the southern Indian Ocean to search and salvage wreckage of Malaysia Airline MH370. China has already sent some six vessels to the area where two Chinese IL-76 aircraft are scouring the rough seas for the missing plane that carried 154 Chinese passengers.

Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak said yesterday hat new analysis of satellite data suggested that the missing plane “ended” in the southern Indian Ocean.

The plane went missing about one hour after takeoff from Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing on March 8.

During the meeting with Iskandar, Xie said China pays great attention to Malaysia”s announcement that the missing plane ended in the Indian Ocean.

“We have noticed that the Malaysian side said it will make further elaboration on related details,” Xie said.

‘Malaysian government the real executioners’
FMT Staff
| March 25, 2014

Family members lash out at the Malaysian government for making an announcement without proper evidence and vowed to take action.

MH370PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian government is the “real executioners” of our loved ones, said relatives of those on board of the crashed Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.

Australian-based newspaper Sydney Morning Herald also quoted the family members lashing out at Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak for making an announcement “without any direct evidence”.

“From March 8, when they announced that MH370 lost contact to today, 18 days have passed during which the Malaysian government and military constantly tried to delay, deceive the passengers’ families and cheat the whole world.

“This shameless behaviour not only fooled and hurt the families of the 154 passengers but also misguided and delayed rescue actions, wasting a large quantity of human resources and materials and lost valuable time for the rescue effort.

“If the 153 Chinese passengers did lose their lives, Malaysia Airlines, the Malaysian government and military are the real executioners who killed them. We the families of those on board submit our strongest protest against them,” said the family member, via a statement in Beijing.

The family members also said that they would take every possible means to pursue the unforgivable crimes and responsibility of the Malaysian government, Malaysia Airlines and the military.

Najib Tun RazakYesterday night, Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak announced that MH370 flight had crashed in the southern part of the Indian Ocean.

“Based on UK’s 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,” Najib was reported saying.

Even before Najib made the announcement, Malaysia Airlines had sent a text message in English to the family members in regards to the latest development, leaving them confused.

However, Malaysia Airlines defended the decision to send the text messages, saying all efforts were made to contact all families to inform them in person beforehand.

“I’ve been waiting half a month, and they just give us one sentence?” one woman was reported saying.

China was said to have reacted with disbelief and scepticism over the Najib’s announcement and demanded further details on how investigators reached their conclusion that flight MH370 had crashed in the Indian Ocean.

MH370 went missing mysteriously an hour on its journey from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, carrying 239 passengers and crew members. Most of the passengers were form China.
