It seems very disorganised by the Malaysian Government. Just reading below makes you shake your head at their incompetence over this incident:

Vietnam said it had halted its air search and scaled back a sea search while it waited for Malaysia to offer more detail.

“We’ve decided to temporarily suspend some search and rescue activities, pending information from Malaysia,” deputy minister of transport Pham Quy Tieu told AFP.

Asked about the claim that the plane had last been detected over the Strait of Malacca - suggesting it had crossed the entire peninsula - he replied: “We’ve asked Malaysian authorities twice, but so far they have not replied to us.

“We informed Malaysia on the day we lost contact with the flight that we noticed the flight turned back west but Malaysia did not respond.”

Malaysia’s air force chief denied telling a local newspaper that the aircraft was last detected at 2.40am on the western coast of the Malay peninsula by a military radar - a detail confirmed to news agencies by at least one unnamed military official.
 
Digital Globe, the company that asked users to crowdsource satellite images to help find the missing plane, said it has received a massive response to their initiative. The Straits Times reports:

Volunteers are assigned a batch of satellite images to examine and asked to pin or tag possible signs of plane wreckage, life rafts, oil spills or any interesting or suspicious objects.

The company announced its initiative on Monday, saying two of its commercial satellites have already collected images comprising roughly 1,988 sq miles of the South China Sea where the plane disappeared.

The response to the call was so great that the website crashed, with some 25,000 people signing up to help. The company’s analysts will go through the volunteers’ tags and forward any findings to the authorities.
 



Latest Developments

Now that the press conference appears to have been delayed, I’ll be passing our live coverage over to Matthew Weaver. As events unfolded today there has been more confusion arising from contradictory statements made by Malaysian officials. In summary:
  • Malaysia’s air force chief has denied making a statement that said the plane was tracked by military radar off course to a location near the Strait of Malacca. Rodzali Daud said the reports were untrue, but added that the navy “has not ruled out the possibility of an air turn back on a reciprocal heading.”
  • Malaysia has extended the search area deeper into the Amdaman Sea. There has still been no confirmed sightings of the plane or any debris.
  • Vietnam have withdrawn from some parts of the search effort pending further information from Malaysia. Officials said they would stop searching the area south of the Ca Mau province.
  • The two men who boarded the plane using stolen passports have been identified by the chief of Interpol as Seyed Mohammed Reza Delavar, aged 29 and Pouria Nourmohammadi, aged 18. Interpol said they do believe it is unlikely the men were involved in terrorist organisations.
  • Japan and India have also advised they are assisting the rescue effort. China are also expanding the search and conducting land sweeps.

Air France all over again IMO...

Air France wasn't as strange as this.

With Air France they knew the plane had crashed into the water and where it crashed due to floating debris by this stage.

With this plane they still don't know if it even crashed in the water let alone where it crashed or even if it crashed at all.

This is true. But I think it's just a matter of time until something is recovered.
 
A life raft has been found by Viet fisherman, they called the coast guard in to help them haul it in but it sank.
