US firm Ocean Infinity seals deal to resume hunt for MH370

All fired up: ‘Seabed Constructor’ will continue the search for the ill-fated plane.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has agreed to allow a US exploration firm to resume the hunt for flight MH370, says Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, a year after the search was suspended.

The news came after the company, Ocean Infinity, said this week it had already dispatched a research vessel towards the expected search zone as it believed a deal would be finalised imminently.
