There are several locations along the flight path of SIA68 where it could have easily broken contact and flown and landed in Xingjian province, Kyrgyzstan, or Turkmenistan. Each of these final locations would match up almost perfectly with the 7.5 hours of total flight time and trailing SIA68. In addition, these locations are all possibilities that are on the “ARC” and fit with the data provided by Inmarsat from the SATCOM’s last known ping at 01:11UTC.
http://en.trend.az/regions/casia/turkme ... 53561.htmlTurkmen President, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov invited Malaysian Prime Minister, Mohd Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak to visit Turkmenistan during a phone conversation with him, a message from the country's government said.
The phone conversation took place at the initiative of the Malaysian side.
The parties exchanged views on topical aspects of cooperation in fuel and energy, according to the message.
Razak conveyed best wishes from King Mizan Zainal Abidin ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Mahmud al-Muktafi Billah Shah.
"Turkmenistan's president emphasised the great importance attached to the comprehensive strengthening and intensification of interstate relations with Malaysia on a bilateral and multilateral basis, primarily within major international organisations designed to promote peace, security and sustainable development throughout the world, particularly in Central Asia and the Asia-Pacific region," the message from the government said.
The economies of the two countries are mutually complementary. The key spheres of mutual interest include trade, economic, fuel and energy. The two countries opened embassies in July 2013.
http://www.news.com.au/national/uighur- ... 6855911080CLAIMS by a Malay newspaper that a 35-year-old Uighur man from China’s troubled autonomous Muslim province was on Flight MH370 may be looked at in new light after being written off as irrelevant.
An email sent to journalists, supposedly from representatives from the Uighur separatist movement, claimed for responsibility for the Malaysia Airlines flight’s disappearance.
The emails were dismissed as opportunistic and troublemaking

Malaysia Airlines chief executive Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said on Monday that it was unclear exactly when one of the plane's automatic tracking systems had been disabled, appearing to contradict the weekend comments of government ministers.
Suspicions of hijacking or sabotage had hardened further when officials said on Sunday that the last radio message from the plane - an informal "all right, good night" - was spoken after the system, known as "ACARS", was shut down.
Am I the only one getting the vibe that this and that power station attack awhile back are connected somehow? Both are were well planned and were done by very skilled operators, and both were closely related to the tech industry.
