Sounds like they are searching everywhere....

Countries from central Asia to Australia continue to search for the plane along an arc drawn by authorities based on satellite pings received from the plane for hours after it vanished. One of those arcs tracks the southern Indian Ocean zone that's the focus of current attention.
The other tracks over parts of Cambodia, Laos, China and into Kazakhstan, where authorities said Thursday they had found no trace of the plane.
Hishammuddin said Friday that Malaysian authorities were awaiting permission from Kazakhstan's government to use the country as a staging area for the northern corridor search.
That clearly signals that Malaysian authorities are not ready to give up on the possibility the plane could still be found far from the focus of current search efforts.
"Obviously, the search now has taken a global perspective," Hishammuddin said.
VERY STRANGE. So let's see, they had 4 days to review the satellite images that Australia gave them. THe question is - did Australia give them the "classified" images or the "unclassified" images?
If they were the "unclassified" images, then perhaps after 4 days of review, Malaysia still couldn't determine what the heck was in the images.
If they were the "classified" images, then they would have a much clearer picture of what the objects might be.
