KUALA LUMPUR: The search for the missing MH370 plane will enter a new phase with intensified probe over a larger area of the southern Indian Ocean following a tripartite meeting in Canberra between Malaysia, China and Australia.
Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss said there would be meetings starting tomorrow to analyse data and information collected from the search so far and estimated that the new phase could cost up to A$ 60 million (RM181mil).
“One of the key elements of the next stage will be to undertake more detailed oceangraphic mapping of the search area. Much of this area hasn’t been mapped.
