SINGAPORE (DPA): Relatives of victims of the 1997 SilkAir
crash want the Singapore government to open its own investigation
into the crash, and expressed frustration on Friday that the
probe was going so slowly.

The lack of information about the cause of the crash of the
freshly serviced 10-month-old Boeing 737 near Palembang,
Indonesia, was causing "much anxiety and bitterness", the
relatives statement said.

All 104 people aboard were killed when SilkAir flight MI 185
crashed on Dec. 19, 1997.
