Missing Malaysia Airline’s Flight 370 : Malaysian Gov’t Announces Discovery of 122 Objects In Indian Ocean

The Malaysian Remote Sensing Agency (MRSA) says it has received new satellite images from France showing 122 potential objects in one area of the Indian Ocean, into which the missing plane is believed to have crashed.

Taken on March 23rd 2014, the satellite images show that the objects are long as 23 metres, some appearing bright, possibly indicating solid, human material.

“They were located about 2,500 kilometers from Perth”, Acting Minister of Transportation, Hishammuddin Bin Hussein said on Wednesday. “This is another new lead that will help direct the search operation”.

The Beijing-bound Malaysian Airlines plane conveying 239 people disappeared on 8th March 2014 after losing touch with the Malaysia air traffic control in Subang, two hours into its take-off from Kuala Lumpur.

The Boeing 777-200 departed Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 12:41 a.m. and was expected to land in Beijing at 6:30 a.m., a 2,300-mile (3,700km) trip, but it never arrived.

The 227 passengers and 12 crew members aboard are citizens of China (includes Taiwan), Malaysia, India, Indonesia, Australia, United States, France, New Zealand, Ukraine, Canada, Russia, Italy, Netherlands, and Austria.

Only three days ago, Malaysian Prime Minister, Najib Razak announced that the flight crashed into the South Indian Ocean, citing analysis of data by a British satellite company and accident investigators.

This position formally ended the possibility that there might have been survivors but families of the victims are still clinging to the hope that an escape could have happened somehow.

“I am afraid to tell my sons their father might never come home. My heart can’t handle it. I don’t want to hurt my children”, Cheng Li Ping, a Chinese woman whose husband was on the missing plane, said late on Tuesday.

“I cannot bring myself to accept that my husband is dead. I can’t trust the Malaysian government. I can’t work now because all I can think about is my husband and my children. I don’t have strength. My head is a mess”. (0)

Missing Malaysia Airline’s Flight 370 : Malaysian Gov’t Announces Discovery of 122 Objects In Indian Ocean

Malaysian woman claims she spotted missing jet as she flew over Andaman Islands – but was ignored by police

Malaysian woman claims to have seen missing MH370 in the water near Andaman Islands on day it disappeared

As aircraft and ships continued to search for debris which might be that of the missing flight MH370 on Friday a Malaysian woman on a flight across the Indian Ocean claimed to have seen an aircraft in the water near the Andaman Islands on the day the the jet disappeared.

The Kuala Lumpur wife is so convinced about what she saw at 2.30 in the afternoon of March 8, several hours after MH370 had been reported missing, that she has filed an official report with police.


And she admitted that she had received scorn about her account, including from a pilot who said the aircraft she was on would have been too high for her to have seen anything on the ocean below.

But mother of 10 Mrs Latife Dalelah, 53, insisted she saw a silver object in the shape of an aircraft on the water as she was flying from Jeddah to Kuala Lumpur. It was about an hour after her aircraft had flown past the southern Indian city of Chennai.

‘Throughout the journey I was staring out of the window of the aircraft as I couldn’t sleep during the flight,’ she told the New Straits Times.

The in-flight monitor showed that her plane was crossing the Indian Ocean and she had seen several shipping liners and islands – before she saw the silvery object.

‘I took a closer look and was shocked to see what looked like the tail and wing of an aircraft on the water,’ she said.

‘I woke my friends on the flight but they laughed me off,’ she added.

The same reaction has come from a pilot who questioned how anyone flying at about seven miles above sea level could see anything like a boat or ship from so high up.

But Mrs Dalelah insisted to the paper: ‘I know what I saw. I am convinced that I saw the aircraft. I will not lie. I had just returned from my pilgrimage.’

A large part of what she thought was an aircraft was submerged, she said. When she tried to tell an air stewardess what she had seen, she was told to get some sleep.

When her plane landed at Kuala Lumpur at about 4pm on that Saturday she told her children what she had seen. ‘That is when they told me that MH370 had gone missing,’ she told the paper.

‘My son-in-law, a policeman, was convinced that I had seen an aircraft and asked me to lodge a police report the same day.

‘Many of my friends on the flight doubted me at first, but they are beginning to believe me now that we know the plane (MH370) turned back and entered the Indian Ocean.’

The agency co-ordinating the exhaustive search operation for MH370 still holds out hope of finding people alive, as authorities scramble to cover the massive 600,000 square-kilometre (230,000 square-mile) search area.

The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) revealed on Friday that they were preparing for the remote possibility of a human rescue mission, should the two large objects spotted by satellite some 2,500 kilometres (1,500 miles) off the coast of Perth be related to the missing Malaysian Airlines flight.

John Young, the general manager of AMSA’s Emergency Response Division, said the focus of the massive search operation – which now includes 29 planes, 21 ships and six helicopters from more than 20 contributor countries – was first and foremost on trying to locate the large pieces of debris, one up to 24 metres (78ft) in length, the other five metres (16 feet).

‘We want to find these objects because they might be the best lead to where we might find people to be rescued,’ Mr Young said.

‘We have done some work on that area and we’re still focused on that task, to find people to be rescued.

‘It is a very large team effort… with the international community providing technical support and information and we’re all very grateful for that.’

The two objects are in one of the most remote areas of the world – about the same distance from Perth as London is from Moscow – which means that aircraft only have a limited time to conduct searches.

And it takes them four hours to get there.

What’s more, the area is renowned for shipping debris – so much so that it’s dubbed ‘the maritime dustbin’.

There is a strong chance, therefore, that the objects in fact fell off a ship.

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who announced news of the objects on Thursday, warned: ‘It could just be a container that has fallen off a ship. We just don’t know.’

Treacherous weather hampered Thursday’s search effort, but the operation resumed on Friday in much clearer weather, with planes scouring an area slightly to the north of the zone that was combed initially.

This is because strong currents may have moved the objects.

‘It’s about the most inaccessible spot that you can imagine on the face of the earth, but if there is anything down there, we will find it,’ Mr Abbott told reporters in Papua New Guineau, where he is on a visit.

‘We owe it to the families of those people (on board) to do no less.’

The pilot from the first RAAF P3 Orion to return from its second sweep of the search area told a press gathering at Pearce RAAF air base: ‘We’ve got a lot of hope.’

‘We got out there and had really good weather,’ he said.

‘Compared to yesterday the visibility was great, more than 10km visibility, we had a really opportunity to see.

‘There are more aircraft out there, still searching, and with any luck we’ll find something shortly. We’ve got a lot of hope.’ (0)

Was missing Malaysian plane taken by UFO?

Up till now, the whole world is still wondering what could have happened to the Boeing 777-200ER which took off from Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian capital, at 12:41 a.m. on Saturday, with 239 people on board. It was expected to arrive in Beijing at 6:30 a.m. the same day, after a roughly 4,350 kilometre journey. But around 1:30 a.m., air traffic controllers in Subang, outside Kuala Lumpur, lost contact with the plane over the sea between Malaysia and Vietnam.

Since then, all mouth has been agape with the unanswered question, what in the world must have happened to this jumbo jet? Thirty-four planes, 40 ships and search crews from 10 countries have been scouring the South China Sea near where the plane was last detected. The search has proved futile. It was thought that the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 must have crashed in the waters or maybe have exploded in the air, leaving debris as evidence of its end. But debris in the area has turned out to be unrelated to the plane. “We have not found anything that appear to be objects from the aircraft, let alone the aircraft,” Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, Director General of the Malaysian Civil Aviation Department, said on Monday.

Similarly, a slick in the area was determined to be from fuel oil typically used in cargo ships, not from the plane. So, the civil aviation chief concluded that the plane’s disappearance is an “unprecedented mystery”.However, because the event is certainly mysterious, it has spawned all sorts of theories and mysterious connections. The pilots of the lost plane did not indicate any problem to the tower, and no distress signal was issued. Malaysian military officials cite radar data as suggesting the plane might have turned back toward Kualar Lumpur; but the pilots did not tell air traffic control that they were doing so, and no one knows why the plane would have turned around. There were also terrorism act speculations as being the cause of the sudden disappearance.

Facts came out that among the 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board, there were two people who used stolen Italian and Austrian passports. Interpol identified the men using the stolen passports as both Iranians; but by last Tuesday it was finally established that the two were not in any way related to any terrorist group or had the capacity to carry out terrorist acts. They were men on their way to Europe in search of greener pastures.The baffling part of the whole affair is that nobody knows what transpired in the plane’s cockpit around the time the plane lost contact with air traffic controllers, thereby spurring even wilder speculations. In any case, the Boeing 777 was in what is considered the safest part of a flight, the cruise portion, when it disappeared. What is more, the weather conditions were reported to be good.

This is why the internet space has been abuzz with all sorts of conjectures ranging from the reasonable to the bizarre. Of course people need an explanation: planes don’t just disappear. In the plane were five passengers younger than 5 years old. There were 14 nationalities spanning the Asia-Pacific region, Europe and North America. Passengers from China or Taiwan numbered 154, followed by Malaysians, at 38. There were three US citizens.What if the plane was snatched by aliens in their unidentified flying objects, popularly known as UFO? Mysterious disappearances in certain areas are not new on Earth.

There are records of aircraft disappearing in the infamous Bermuda Triangle. In December 5, 1945, Flight 19 (TBF Avengers) got lost with 14 airmen, and later the same day PBM Mariner BuNo 59225 lost with 13 airmen while searching for flight 19.

On January 30, 1948, Avro Tudor G-AHNP Star Tiger lost with six crew and 25 passengers, en route from Santa Maria Airport in the Azores to Kindley Field, Bermuda. On December 28, 1948, Douglas DC-3 NC16002 lost with three crew and 36 passengers, en route from San Juan, Peurt Rico, to Miami. On January 17, 1949, Avro Tudor G-AGRE Star Ariel lost with seven crew and 13 passengers, en route from Kindley Field, Bermuda, to Kingston Airport, Jamaica.

There were also reported cases of lost vessels at sea in the same area. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is an undefined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and ships are known to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. According to the US Navy, the triangle does not exist, and the name is not recognised by the US Board on Geographic Names.

However, popular culture has attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. But the South China Sea is not Bermuda, so how come this Malaysian Airlines jet disappearance? Nevertheless, I am of the view that if we wish to explore the UFO/aliens hypothesis, there still exists a link between the disappearance of the plane and paranormal activities in the region. This is hinged on two crucial facts. One, paranormal activities are supernatural; science cannot explain them.

In the sudden disappearance of such a giant airliner without any trace whatsoever, we cannot afford to foreclose the handiwork of inter-dimensional/extraterrestrial creatures who are known to visit the earth occasionally, but which is always kept in the shadows by the governments and the mainstream media. We all know that the world is in constant denial of seeming supernatural manifestations because of obvious reasons. A writer once stated, “The world is in denial. Every passing day there are reports of paranormal occurrences all over the world.

Crop circles in England; unidentified flying objects (UFO) sightings and alien abductions in America; dead-come-back-to-life in Africa; psychic healing in India, and so on. But these occurrences are down-played by the press and explained away by scientific researchers.” Secondly, there had been media reports about UFO sightings in China, specifically in Chinese airports, over the past couple of years. The lost Malaysian airliner was headed for China, and with two-thirds of the passengers being Chinese nationals.

According to media reports, at about 8:40pm local time, in the evening of July 7, 2010, in Hangzhou’s Xiaoshan Airport, China’s ninth-busiest, a UFO was reported by a flight crew that was preparing to land. As a precaution, flight controllers delayed or redirected eighteen flights. Another similar incident happened the next year, 2011, in Chongqing, China. The Shanghai Daily reported that a UFO was spotted one Wednesday afternoon in August floating high about Jiangbei International Airport in the city of Chongqing, an important aviation hub for southwestern China.

Worried officials diverted several flights to other airports before it disappeared about 50 minutes later and air traffic was allowed to return to normal. So, with my knowledge of how UFO/aliens have reportedly being operating throughout history – always certainly showing up in leading civilisations, empires and powerful governments – I have the following unanswered questions. Are aliens interested in China? Is the lost Malaysian plane brouhaha yet another incursion into mankind’s abode by these inter-dimensional/extraterrestrial beings? If it happens that stronger evidences emerge as to the verity of this troubling reality, is the world prepared to face squarely, this intimidating clear and present danger? (0)
