Malaysia's Acting Transport Minister Hishamuddin Hussein said he was confident that the aircraft will be found.

“I believe we will find MH370 sooner or later,” he said.

The Beijing-bound Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 - carrying 239 people, including five Indians, an Indo-Canadian and 154 Chinese nationals - had mysteriously vanished on March 8 after taking off from Kuala Lumpur.

The mystery of the missing plane continued to baffle aviation and security authorities who have so far not succeeded in tracking the aircraft despite deploying hi tech radar and other gadgets.

Hishammuddin said Malaysia remains focused on finding the missing plane and more experts were on board the search team to find flight MH370.

He said he will travel to Canberra for the meeting on Monday.

Meanwhile, Malaysian authorities yesterday released the plane's full cargo manifest, saying the aircraft was carrying 4.566 tonnes of mangosteens, a fruit, besides 200 pieces of lithium ion batteries weighing about 2.453 tonnes.
