　　澳大利亚誓言推进MH370搜索

　　PERTH, Australia, March 31 (Xinhua) -- Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said Monday that there is no time limit yet to stop searching for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.

　　Speaking at a press conference here in the Pearce air force base, he pledged to get to the bottom of the MH370 mystery, saying that if it is solvable "we will solve it."

　　Australia is working with all available resources on all possible leads in the search, said Abbott, adding that the country has brought "the best brains" to the mission.

　　David Johnston, Australia's defense¹ minister, said there are 100 people in the air and 1,000 at sea scouring² the new search area in the southern Indian Ocean.

　　Among the 239 people on board, 154 are Chinese.
