Possibly, the biggest news item that has grabbed the attention of the world and has everybody thinking, is the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines, flight MH370, just over a week ago. The plane left Kuala Lumpur, was on its way to China, when it fell out of radar detection and radio communication.
How can we lose something that big? In this day and age?
Sure, several aircrafts have been lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Amelia Earhart was not found also. But in this day and age where we have satellites, radar, military surveillance, Google Earth and internet communication, we do not expect to lose something like a Boeing 777.
Somebody has mocked the process, saying that "MH370 so big cannot find, Anwar sperm so small but cannot find". The mishandling has been so embarrassing that somebody feels that he does not want to embrace Islam.
That the loss of the plane happened so soon after Malaysia's opposition leader, Anwar Ibrahim, was accused of sodomy (again), and the court convicted Karpal Singh of sedition, leaves some to think that might be some political motivation behind this national embarrassment. However, we do not yet know if this is the case.
What do you think? What happened to the plane? Why? How? Will there ever be a believable explanation?
What can be done for Malaysia? How can the nation handle the situation better?
