False News - landing at Nanming

Nanming

At 10:30 am on the day that MH370 went missing, Saturday, 8 March 2014 Malaysia Airlines stated in the 3rd Media Statement:-

There has been speculation that the aircraft has landed at Nanming. We are working to verify the authenticity of the report and others.

目前有推测该客机在Nanming地区降落,我们正在和有关当局证实该信息的真实性。

The story spread quickly on Chinese social media - that the aircraft had made a safe emergency landing in Nanning, China[1].

There was some confusion as two cities were cited, Nanning in China, and Nanming (as in Malaysia Airlines' 3rd Media Statement), which is in Vietnam.

News of any landing would have given relatives and friends of passengers some hope, but the news was false.
