00:00 After an extensive 44-day search, the black box of the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement
00:07 Agency, or MMEA, AW139 helicopter, which made an emergency landing during a rescue exercise
00:14 near Pulau Angsa, Kuala Selangor last month, was located on Wednesday.
00:20 In a statement, MMEA Director General Admiral Datuk Hamid Mohamad Amin said that the black
00:25 box was discovered by the agency's rescue diving team after the helicopter's tail was
00:30 detected approximately 1.9 nautical miles south of Pulau Angsa, about 760 metres from
00:37 the crash site.
00:39 Following retrieval, the black box was sent to the laboratory for data analysis to determine
00:45 the precise cause of the incident.
00:47 Hamid said the analysis result is expected soon since the black box did not suffer severe
00:52 damage.
00:53 The Augusta Westland AW139 helicopter made the emergency landing in the water at approximately
01:00 9.55am on March 5 during the rescue exercise.
