BINTULU: Twenty-two pieces of debris have been found so far in South Africa, Mozambique, Mauritius and Tanzania, with two confirmed finds and another four almost certain to be from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 plane.

Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai (pic) said the confirmed debris, a flaperon found on Reunion Island in July last year and an outboard flap found on the island of Pemba, off the coast of Tanzania in June this year, was important to determine how the incident could have occurred.
