KUALA LUMPUR. Almost four years after the mysterious disappearance of the Malaysian passenger aircraft MH370 with 239 people aboard a private company to resume the search for the wreck. 
Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai said they had accepted a bid from US-based research company Ocean Infintiy. A bonus is paid only in case of success. Ocean Infintiy plans to conduct its search with a modern research vessel in an area of 25,000 square kilometers near Australian waters. This area was determined by experts as the likely crash site of the aircraft, Lai said. The Boeing 777 was on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in March 2014 when it suddenly disappeared from the radar screens in the middle of the night.
