well, I’ll have to side with AP on this one: “The Malaysian government and media have repeatedly contradicted each other and themselves over details of the search and criminal investigation.”
meanwhile, back at the ranch, here’s a few eastereggs from Anwar Ibrahim, (shah’s cousin’s cousin or something?) who wants an international investigative team to take over, says government is concealing information, and states :”...when he was the country’s finance minister in 1994 he personally authorised the installation of “one of the most sophisticated radar” systems in the world, based near the South China Sea and covering Malaysia’s mainland and east and west coastlines. The radar would have instantly detected the Boeing 777 as it travelled east to west across “at least four” Malaysian provinces, he said, describing the fact that the plane was not spotted by the sophisticated radar immediately after it changed course as “not only unacceptable but not possible, not feasible.”
Note how the Malaysian transport minister always comes to the defense of Captain Shah:
Reports in the Malaysian newspaper the New Straits Times claim that the plane’s co-pilot, Fariq Abdul Hamid, tried to use his mobile phone while the plane was in the air. This has fuelled speculation that captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah hijacked his own plane after tricking Hamid into leaving the cockpit.
However, Malaysian acting transport minister Hishammuddin Hussein has denied the claims, and said: “If this did happen, we would have known about it earlier.”
earlier??? earlier than what??? when and how would you have known??? would that be after the plane descended from 45,000ft with everyone dead ??? or after it failed to land in China??? What an idiot —
There were 200 other cell phones on that flight. The investigators need to find out how many of those other 200 other cell phones connected with that tower on Penang like the co-pilot’s did.
But first they need to fire the transport minister —
