MH370搜寻结束马政府将公布报告 私人调查者遭威胁

2018-06-01来源:和谐英语

Malaysia’s new government has promised to release a long-awaited report into the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 as a privately funded underwater search ended on Tuesday. The plane, carrying 239 people, vanished en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014, becoming one of the world’s greatest aviation mysteries.

关于马来西亚航空MH370航班搜寻,马来西亚新政府已承诺将发布一份期待已久的报告,私人资助的水下搜索于周二结束。这架载有239人的飞机于2014年3月8日从吉隆坡飞往北京途中消失,成为世界上最大的航空奥秘之一。

The government of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad said last week that US seabed exploration firm Ocean Infinity, which had scoured the southern Indian Ocean for the aircraft since January, would end its hunt on Tuesday. The previous administration of Najib Razak, who was defeated in a stunning election upset on May 9, had promised up to $70 million to the Texas-based firm if it found the plane within 90 days.

总理马哈蒂尔穆罕默德政府上周表示,美国海底勘探公司Ocean Infinity自1月份以来一直在南印度洋搜寻这架飞机,将于周二结束搜寻。前一届执政的纳吉布拉扎克在5月9日的一场惊心动魄的选举中落选,如果在90天内发现这架飞机,马内阁已承诺将高达7000万美元特别奖金给这个位于得克萨斯州的公司。

Malaysia’s transport minister, Anthony Loke, said a full report into MH370’s disappearance would be published in the near future, but he did not give a date. Asked whether the report would refer to controversial elements of the MH370 case, he said: "To me, whatever elements, we will just publish it." Last year, Australian authorities said the MH370 captain had flown a route on his home simulator six weeks before the disappearance that was "initially similar" to the course actually taken by the aircraft.

马来西亚交通部长安东尼洛克表示,MH370失踪案的全面报道将在不久的将来发布,但他没有给出具体日期。当被问及这份报告是否会提及MH370案件中有争议的元素时,他说:“对我而言,无论什么元素,我们都会公布它。”去年,澳大利亚当局表示,MH370机长在失踪前六周曾在他的家里进行模拟飞机飞行,这与MH370飞机实际采取的行程“很相似”。

Ocean Infinity CEO Oliver Plunkett said on Tuesday that their team had searched more than 112,000 sq km of ocean floor in a little over three months. Asked if China would consider further funding for the search, or whether search organizations had asked China for more resources, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said China had always stayed in touch with the investigation and would continue to do so. "We will continue to maintain communication with relevant parties," Hua said.

Ocean Infinity首席执行官Oliver Plunkett周二表示,他们的团队在三个多月内搜索了超过112,000平方公里的海底。当被问到中国是否考虑为搜索提供进一步资金时,或者搜索组织是否已经要求中国提供更多资源时,外交部发言人华春英说,中国一直与调查保持联系,并将继续这样做。“我们将继续保持与有关方面的沟通,”华说。
