Summary of press conference at 5:30 PM Malaysian time.


Malaysian investigators have categorically denied speculation that the pilot and/or FO asked to fly together.

-investigation has entered a new phase with involvement of more countries along the North Corridor (11 countries making a total of 25 countries involved in SAR). Malaysian PM has spoken to the PMs/Presidents of some countries along the Northern Corridor. Focus has shifted away from South China Sea.

-Police are using Acts covering sabotage, hijacking etc in their investigations including cargo manifest, personal problems including all ground crew, pilot's flight sim, pax background checks (some international police agencies have cleared all pax- no negative records on them). Section 130 (c) applied and data release classified.

-satellite and radar info has been requested from all countries concerned in possible flight path and those who have global coverage over suspected areas.

-Immediate financial assistance (not compensation) being given to families of pax

-Plane took off with plenty of fuel for original flight plus some extra for contingencies. There was no extra fuel (otherwise).

-Flight simulator has been taken by Police and is being examined by experts

-Primary military data (revealed to investigative partners when normally not done), with satellite data is the reason for shift of focus

-no hazardous substance in cargo manifest.

-new information received yesterday being investigated - will be verified and corroborated before being released

-cannot divulge military radar data from other sources
