SEPANG, March 11 — All-England champion, Datuk Lee Chong Wei has called on Malaysians to together pray for the best for passengers of the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which is missing since Saturday.
Chong Wei, who was met by reporters at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) upon his return from London, said he still followed the latest developments on the incident when facing the championship, via the international media.
“Let’s pray for the safety of all passengers and crew of MH370,”he said.

It was his third victory after winning the championship in 2010 and 2011. — Bernama
