MH17

Four months after disappearance of MH370, a tragedy has struck again on our national carrier - Malaysia Airlines.

Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was allegedly shot down by a missile while traversing the Ukraine airspace.

No one has claimed responsibility of the tragedy, instead both countries in crisis began blaming each other.

MH17 carried 173 Dutch, 43 Malaysians, and passengers of other nationalities.

It is the darkest moment in Malaysia's history, and even darker for Malaysia Airlines. I believe there's no airline that has been hit with two major disasters within four months.

I was flabbergasted and sad. Malaysia Airlines did nothing wrong. The plane simply got caught in the crossfire of two conflicting countries.

I hope the perpetrators could be identified, and I hope a thorough and proper investigation could be carried out to ensure the culprits are put behind bars for the hideous acts on innocent people.

I hope Malaysia Airlines remains strong, and the people of Malaysia united in this very difficult time for the whole Malaysia.
