KUALA LUMPUR, March 15 – Kuala Lumpur thinks it is necessary to set up an international expert team to look into causes of the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 crash in Ukraine, Malaysian Senate President Abu Zahar Ujang said.

"Malaysia is urging the international community to create a professional expert team, which would carry this investigation to the end in an unbiased, professional and independent manner and would find out the whole truth," he told reporters on Tuesday, after a meeting with Federation Council Chairperson Valentina Matviyenko in Kuala Lumpur.
