Now Prahlad Shirsah has got an email from the Malaysian Government informing that the search operation is in the final week. The plane was on its way to Beijing from Kualalampur when it went missing. After getting the mail, Mr.Shirsah said that he would not give up the hope that some news about the finding of the plane would surface soon.
The Email said that the Malaysian Government had entered into an agreement with Ocean Infinity Limited, an American exploration firm in January for the search of MH 370.The 90-day search by Ocean Infinity Limited rendered fruitless with them calling off the search in April. But they started the search again after Malaysian Government’s request and extended the search operations till May 29.
