The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 was called off in January this year, after the governments of China, Australia and Malaysia had spent as much as $200 million on efforts to solve the incredible mystery, coming up with very few answers as to what happened to the Boeing 777-200ER that vanished on March 8, 2014. Since then, some new evidence has been identified through satellite imagery analysis, but the families of the 227 passengers and 12 crew members are still left with questions.

- Malaysia has approved a "No Cure No Fee" proposal from Houston-based Ocean Infinity to resume the search using advanced autonomous underwater vehicles, although a final agreement is still under negotiation with participating governments.
