A Press Briefing by Hishammuddin Hussein, Minister of Defence and Acting Minister of Transport dated May 8 when posted to the Department of Civil Aviation Newsroom webpage has been removed from here and moved to 29 April 2014 which was the date of the original briefing.
Media Statements and Transcripts are an important component of the story of Flight MH370, revealing how an understanding developed over time.
Unfortunately few of these documents are available from their original sources, although some are included on the MH370 Official Site.
The inclusion of Media Statements in this website thus provides background information and facilitates direct linking to relevant articles.
