2014年CRI 马航客机搜寻进入新阶段 或将耗时8至12个月

 

Chinese, Malaysian and Australian officials are preparing to meet this coming Sunday in Canberra to discuss the next steps in the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.

Malaysia's acting¹ transport minister and the head of the Joint² Coordiation Center met on Friday ahead of the Australian meeting.

Both are warning the deep water search could take anywhere from 8 to 12-months.

But both say they're confident they will discover the wreckage³ of the airliner⁴.

Meanwhile, China will go all out for underwater search for flight MH370, according to China Maritime⁵ Search and Rescue Center.

A Chinese Navy vessel⁶ with strong underground searching capacities has left for the southern Indian Ocean and is expected to arrive on May 10.
