The authority involved in the search for the missing MH370 aircraft has yet to decide whether to terminate the mission after the targeted 120,000 square kilometres of coverage in the Indian Ocean is completed.
Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the decision would depend on the report by the search experts despite the discovery of several debris confirmed to belong to the ill-fated aircraft, which vanished since March 8, 2014.
He said a tripartite meeting involving Malaysia, China and Australia would be held in June or July to discuss on the next course of action.
"We stand guided by the experts' rules. After the search is completed they will give us a report and we will discuss at the tripartite meeting.
"No decision has been made as yet," he told reporters after opening the new RM22 million SJKC Wangsa Maju, here, today.

The Beijing-bound MH370 aircraft with 239 passengers and crew on board had been reported to have ended in the southern Indian Ocean.
On another matter, Liow who is also MCA president, said educators must constantly upgrade themselves to be technology savvy to stay ahead in order to provide quality education in the digital era.
He said educators could no longer afford to stick to the old system and old methods of teaching in providing quality education and imparting knowledge to the young generation.
Earlier, in his speech, Liow said the multiple school streams in the country should be seen as an advantage which could help Malaysia be more competitive at the global stage.
SJKC Wangsa Maju has 430 pupils since it opened its doors in 2015.
