Chinese premier pledges $14.5 million for search of MH370
Published November 22, 2015
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has pledged an additional $14.5 million to fund the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 that disappeared more than a year ago with 239 people aboard.
Li made the announcement on Saturday during a meeting with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull in Malaysia, where Asia-Pacific leaders are holding a regional summit.
The MH370 disappeared on March 8, 2014, en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. French investigators have identified a washed-up piece of airplane debris found in July on a remote island in the Indian Ocean as part of the Boeing 777.
Most of the passengers were Chinese.
A multinational search has so far cost more than $120 million.
