Beliau berkata, laporan mengenai pesawat MAS MH370 yang hilang pagi ini sudah mendarat cemas di Nanning adalah tidak betul dan hanya spekulasi.
Dalam sidang medianya sebentar tadi, beliau berkata, kali terakhir pesawat dapat dihubungi ketika beradi pada jarak 120 batu nautika di perairan Laut China selatan jam 2.41 pagi tadi.
'No signal' detected by Vietnamese search and rescue
Vietnamese search and rescue operations have not picked up any signal from missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, a Vietnamese rescue official has said.
"We have been seeking but no signal from the plane yet," Pham Hien, director of a Vietnam maritime search and rescue coordination centre in Vung Tau, told Reuters.
Vietnamese and Chinese media had reported that a signal from the plane had been picked up. The reports did not identify what kind of signal.
"The information on local media about the signal near the Cape Ca Mau was inaccurate," Pham said.
