Malaysia govt offers minimum $ 5000 compensation to relatives of passengers

The Malaysian government has said that it has offered family members of those on board flight
MH370 compensation of $5000 each, and is preparing to pay more.
The relatives of passengers aboard the plane have already
been put up in hotels at the expense of the airline as search efforts continued.
They added that it was not correct" to say families have been isolated during search for MH370 and that this was a

"painful period" for the airline.
Both Malaysian airlines and the Malaysian government have come under massive criticism. Family members of the missing passengers have complained bitterly about a lack of reliable information.
Deputy Foreign Minister Xie Hangsheng told Malaysia's ambassador to Beijing that China wanted to know what exactly
led Malaysia to announce Monday night that the plane had been lost, China's Foreign Ministry said on its website Tuesday.
"We demand the Malaysian side to
make clear the specific basis on which they come to this judgment," Xie was quoted as telling Datuk Iskandar Bin Sarudin. 10.26 am: Chinese relatives protest at Malaysia embassy Furious over Malaysia's handling of the lost jetliner
a day after the country said the
passengers must be dead, Chinese
relatives of the missing marched Tuesday to the Malaysia Embassy, where they threw plastic water bottles, tried to rush the gate and chanted, "Liars!" The Chinese government, meanwhile,
demanded that Malaysia turn over the satellite data it used to conclude that Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 was lost in the southern Indian Ocean with no survivors during a flight to Beijing.
Among the flight's 239 passengers, 153 were Chinese nationals, making the incident a highly emotional one for Beijing, and the government's demand reflected the desire among many Chinese relatives of passengers for more conclusive information on the plane's
fate.
Nearly 100 relatives and their supporters marched to the embassy in the late morning, wearing white T-shirts that read
"Let's pray for MH370? as they held banners and chanted. "Tell the truth! Return our relatives!" they shouted.
There was a heavy police presence at the embassy when the group arrived, and journalists were being kept away. Family
members of the missing passengers have complained bitterly about a lack of reliable information.
Many have said they suspect they are not being told the whole
truth — a not-uncommon mindset among ordinary Chinese accustomed to dealing with their own opaque and single-party
communist state
