Signs of the missing Malaysia Airlines plane point to an oil slick in the Gulf of Thailand. The 12-mile-long streak of oil could be a clue as to what happened to the Boeing 777-200 that was carrying 239 passengers early Saturday morning. Flight MH370 wound up lost after departing Kuala Lumpur for Beijing.
在泰国湾附近疑似发现了失踪的马来西亚航空的飞机，发现的是一条长达12公里的海面油迹。失踪的马来西亚航空飞机MH370航班系波音777-200飞机，载有239人，周六凌晨从吉隆坡飞往北京。

New York Times reports March 8 that Malaysia’s prime minister, Mr. Najib, said 15 aircraft and nine ships were out searching for the jet.
《纽约时报》报道说，3月8日，马来西亚总理纳吉布表示，已派出15架飞机和9艘船只参与搜救失踪飞机。

It has not been confirmed that the MH370 flight lost crashed, but fuel tanks were limited in the distance it had. The possible Malaysia Airlines oil slick discovered, would benefit crash survivors if it landed in the Gulf of Thailand due to shallow waters in that area versus deep waters in the Atlantic.
还没有消息证实MH370航班已失事，但是这个航程的航班油量是有限的。现在在泰国湾附近发现了该飞机的海面油迹，也许还会有幸存者，因为泰国湾附近属于浅水区，而不是大西洋的深水区。

Suspicions of foul play showed up when authorities learned that two foreign citizens who stole passports from Asia were on flight MH370. One was an Italian and another an Austrian.The Italian man is identified as Luigi Maraldi. An Austrian spokesperson did not identify the Austrian. An anonymous U.S. official want to make clear that this does not mean an act ofterrorism occurred.
但是官方发现了有两名身份不明的嫌疑人登机，因为在MH370航班上的两位外国人的护照曾经被偷。这两位外国人一位是意大利人，另一位是奥地利人。意大利人已经证实是路易吉-马拉尔迪。奥地利人的身份并没有公布。一位匿名的美国官方人士表示，希望这不是一起恐怖袭击事件。

“We are not ruling out anything,” said chief executive of Malaysia Airlines, Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, Saturday night.“As far as we are concerned right now, it’s just a report.”
马来西亚航空首席执行官Ahmad Jauhari Yahya表示，“就目前的情况来看，我们不会排除任何可能性（指恐怖袭击的可能性），现在只是汇报情况。”

According to the report from Malaysia Airlines, passengers on the plane included "two infants, and an all-Malaysian crew of 12. The passengers included 154 citizens from China or Taiwan, 38 Malaysians, seven Indonesians, six Australians, five Indians, four French and three Americans, as well as two citizens each from Canada, New Zealand and Ukraine and one each from Austria, Italy, the Netherlands and Russia."
根据马来西亚航空的通报，飞机上载有“2名婴儿，12名马航的机组人员。乘客中包括154名中国或台湾人，38名马来西亚人，7名印度尼西亚人，6名澳大利亚人，5名印度人，4名法国人，3名美国人，加拿大、新西兰和乌克兰各2人，奥地利、意大利、荷兰和俄罗斯各1人。”

根据最新的消息，马来西亚航空公司失联的飞往北京的MH370航班名单中，今年37岁的意大利乘客Luigi Maraldi已经确认其不在飞机上。意大利外交部联系其家人，证实其现在泰国。其家人称他的护照于2013年8月1日在泰国被偷，他曾回意大利办理了新的护照后重返泰国。目前有一种可能是有人用他丢失的护照登机。
