Already criticized for its handling of the disappearance and
stop-start search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, Malaysia is now being
called "incompetent" again; this time in how they are conducting the
investigation of how the plane disappeared.
Last week, the Malaysian Transport Ministry on Thursday
released a 5-page preliminary report on the missing plane along with the audio
recording. The fact that the report was only 5 pages long is shocking enough
but now, analysts who listened to the recordings say the recording released has
been edited!
Audio forensic experts say there are several irregularities
in audio recordings from the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, including four
clear breaks in the audio that indicated edits. According to NBC News, experts
said at least two different audio sources recorded the tapes, wherein one of
those recordings may have been a digital recorder held up to a speaker.
Unfortunately, I have to say that I agree with the critics
of the Malaysian government. They were foolish to release an edited version of
the audio recording. Now I agree that editing the recording doesn’t mean that
they are covering something up but that’s the impression it will give!
They should either release the recording in its entirety or
not at all. This edited version just gives people more questions instead of
answers, which is what the investigation is for!
