Countries discuss MH370 memorial

Xinhua, February 25, 2015

Malaysia is discussing with China and Australia plans to remember those aboard flight MH370, which went missing almost a year ago.

Talks are being held with Beijing and Canberra for similar programs to be held in China and Australia, said Malaysia's Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai.

"We have a tripartite agreement on this matter," he said.

Flight MH370, with 227 passengers and 12 crew on board, disappeared about an hour after leaving Malaysia's Kuala Lumpur Airport on March 8, 2014 while over the South China Sea. The Boeing 777 aircraft has yet to be found, even after an exhaustive search in the Indian Ocean where it is believed to have gone down.
