希尼尔翻译公司（www.sinosenior.com.cn）2016年2月29日了解到：A Malaysian woman whose husband was on the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is seeking $7.6m in damages from the airline and the government.
　　失联的马航MH370上一名乘客的妻子向马来西亚航空公司和马来西亚政府要求760万美元的赔偿。
　　K Sri Devi accuses the airline of negligence and breach of contract.
　　德维指控该航空公司渎职并违约。
　　Her lawsuit also names Malaysia’s civil aviation authority and air force for losing track of the plane with 239 people on board on 8 March 2014.
　　她的这一索赔案还提及马来西亚民航管理局和空军未能掌握该航班的飞行路线。2014年3月8日的这次航班上共有乘客和机组人员239人
　　Many more similar lawsuits are expected before a two-year filing deadline set by a global aviation agreement.
　　在国际航空协议规定的两年索赔期限之前，预计还将有更多乘客家属提出索赔。
　　In the lawsuit, Ms Devi - together with her two sons and parents-in-law - alleges wrongful death of her husband, S Puspanathan, due to negligence and breach of contract by Malaysia Airlines and the Malaysian government authorities.
　　在本诉讼中，德维与两个儿子及公公婆婆共同提出，德维的丈夫普斯帕纳桑是由于马来西亚航空公司和政府当局的渎职和违约而意外死亡。
　　"They were waiting for some development in the search for the plane but nothing has been forthcoming so far. Everyone is hoping for some answers through the court," her lawyer, Shailender Bhar, told the Associated Press news agency.
　　他们的代表律师巴哈接受美联社采访时说，“他们一直在等待搜寻取得进展，但是至今成果甚微。每个人都希望法庭给出一点儿答复。”
　　Several other relatives of some of the passengers on board MH370 have either already filed or are preparing to file similar claims in other countries, reports say.
　　据报道，马航MH370上部分其他乘客的家属也已在其他国家提出了诉讼，或者正在准备提出诉讼。
　　The 1999 Montreal Convention allows each next-of-kin of an air crash victim to claim up to 113,100 special drawing rights (SDR), a mix of currency values established by the International Monetary Fund. The value - which changes regularly - currently equals to about $157,000.
　　根据1999年蒙特利尔公约，空难受害者的每名直系亲属可以要求最高113100单位特别提款权的赔偿。特别提款权是由国际货币基金组织根据多国货币价值所定，它会定期改动，根据目前的标准，约相当于约15.7万美元。
　　However, a plaintiff filing a lawsuit can seek more.
　　不过，如果家属以原告身分向法庭诉讼，则可以要求更多赔偿。
　　Flight MH370 disappeared during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. There were 227 passengers on board, including 153 Chinese and 38 Malaysians, according to the manifest. Seven were children.
　　MH370航班在从吉隆坡飞往北京时失联，机上共有227名乘客，据旅客名单，有153名中国人，38名马来西亚人。另外飞机上有7名儿童。
　　Based on satellite communications data, the plane is thought to have crashed in the Indian Ocean, but only one piece of debris from the aircraft has ever been found, on the French island of Reunion.
　　根据卫星通讯记录，该航班据信已经坠毁在印度洋，但是迄今未止，只在法属留尼旺岛上发现了一块属于这架波音777客机的残骸。
