Malaysia Airlines starts compensation

Malaysia Airlines has started paying compensation to the families of missing persons of the flight MH370.

The airline has paid an advance of 50 000 USD to each family involved. The total payment will be made after the discovery of the airplane or the announcement of its final loss.

According to a spokesman of Chinese families, 127 (out of 153) of them refuse the money, arguing that an economic assistance should be provided as research continues.
