KUALA LUMPUR - Relatives of MH370 passengers will travel to Madagascar next month in hopes of re-kindling efforts to find and recover seaborne debris from the ill-fated Malaysia Airlines jet, next-of-kin association Voice370 said Monday. Seven Voice370 next-of-kin will visit Madagascar December 3-11 to raise awareness, urge search efforts by local organisations and the public, and look for debris themselves. The first piece of debris found from MH370 -- a two-metre wing part known as a flaperon -- washed up on the French Indian Ocean island of Reunion in July 2015. Since then a range of debris linked to the flight has been found along western Indian Ocean shorelines. Amateur investigator, Blaine Gibson, a lawyer from Seattle who has travelled the world trying to solve the MH370 mystery, has also recovered other possible MH370 debris, but authorities have yet to confirm if any of the pieces belong to the missing plane.
