The Malaysian government is to pay a US underwater survey company to resume the search for missing Malaysia Airlines’ flight MH370.
Ocean Infinity will only be paid if it manages to find the aircraft, which is believed to have crashed into the Indian Ocean.
Malaysia’s transport minister Liow Tiong Lai told journalists the government has ‘an unwavering commitment to solving the mystery of MH370’.
The aircraft disappeared in March 2014 during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people onboard.
Already, an international search operation has covered 120,000 square kilometres at a cost of about £120 million. It was suspended last January.
