There were 239 people on board the flight when it disappeared March 8, 2014 en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
The disappearance of flight MH379 remains a mystery two years after it vanished without a trace. The Malaysian parliament commemorated the sad incident by honoring the missing passengers through silence and prayers.
Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak said in a statement that the government is doing everything in its power in the case. He said that the country remains dedicated to exhausting every means to solve the mystery and put an end to the agony of people who lost their relatives on the flight.

The lack of any development, however, is frustrating for relatives and friends of the lost passengers. Most of them have become frustrated with how the case is going and still demand answers about what could be the most puzzling aviation incident of all time.
Even the team of experts assigned to further investigate the case remain perplexed about what could have caused the plane's disappearance. A yearly progress report is expected from the team and the latest statement given by aviation experts did not provide much insight for awaiting families.
"To date," the report states, "the MH370 wreckage has still not been found despite the continuing search in the South Indian Ocean."
The plane went missing since March 8, 2014 after it lost communication with air traffic regulators and controllers. The plane was on its way to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur. There were 239 people on board - 227 passengers and 12 crew members.
Since July 29, 2015, when a part of the plane's debris was washed towards the shore of France's Reunion Island, no other lead has come up to date. Authorities in Malaysia and China, however, remain optimistic that this year will provide both countries with positive developments in the case.
