KUALA LUMPUR: The government is ready to resume the search for Malaysian Airlines' missing MH370 flight if there are credible leads, said Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook.
"The government has already said that if credible evidence emerges and the conclusions convince us that we can find the missing aircraft, we will reconsider.
"We do not completely close the possibility of resuming the research mission, but the government can not pursue its research without credible leads, without any solid evidence," Loke said at a parliamentary session on Thursday, November 29.
On March 8, 2014, flight MH370, carrying 239 people on board, disappeared between Kuala Lumpur and Beijing, becoming one of the biggest aviation mysteries in the world.
The three-year deep-sea research mission to locate the missing aircraft in the Indian Ocean covers an area of 120,000 square kilometers and covers Australia, China and Malaysia.
Another mission carried out by Ocean Infinity, an American underwater exploration company, stopped on May 29 without any significant discovery.

Loke said he would meet with a group of MH370 crew members and family members of passengers who allegedly found new debris on the plane and planned to hand them over to the government.
