Is Malaysian Government Justified In Offering $5000 Compensation To Relatives Of Passengers?
Just read the news that Malaysian Government has offered $5000 to the relatives of the passengers who were traveling in MH370 and it's ready to pay more. The government is already paying for the hotel stay and other expenses of the relatives who are in Malaysia to seek the details of the passengers.
The investigating agencies still aren't sure what really happened to the plane that made it disappear from the air and plunge into the Indian ocean. Had they confirmed that it was a hijacking attempt; the blame would have gone to Malaysian Airlines security agencies and the airline would have been completely responsible for the incident. If the problem was in the design or maintenance of the aircraft; the respective companies would have been held responsible.
But no one knows anything!
In such a situation, do you think Malaysian Airlines is justified in offering monetary compensation to the relatives? I'm seeking both for and against opinions! What do you think?
