It appears that Australia might very well have found the remains of the missing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 that was flight MH 370 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
In the latest twist of this saga that has had more twists and mystery than an Agatha Christie novel at her prime, two objects were spotted in the Indian Ocean off Western Australia. It has not yet been confirmed for certain that the objects are from MH 370 and won't be until Australian naval boats sail to the region to do a search of the area.
However, given the fact that Tony Abbott, Prime Minister of Australia, announced the news to the world via press conference from Canberra, one must regard this as a very credible lead.
Australians certainly aren't ones to broadcast every single ruse and rumour like the Malaysians have earlier on, and would have been at least 80% certain that this could be the missing plane that everyone has been looking for since last Saturday.
In that case, it would probably indicate a sad end to this most mysterious and intriguing of air tragedies and bring closure to the families and friends of those on board.
The irony is that Perth was where one of the passengers, New Zealander Paul Weeks, was usually resident in. Could there be a link?
What was the motive of hijacking this plane and then flying it all the way to Perth, Australia and in the direction of Antarctica?

Is this what Happy Feet the Emperor Penguin has been up to since we last saw him at Wellington Zoo nearly 3 years ago?
The incredulous theories that abound just show you how long this saga has drawn out, and how much interest there has been in this most tragic of circumstances.
Even if the debris is found, it might be some time before we really know what happened to MH 370 and why.
