An AirAsia X pilot has been suspended due to a Facebook post over the recent announcement about the crashed MH370 Malaysian Airlines flight. In the Facebook post, the pilot criticised the Malaysian government for not having enough concrete evidence to prove that the MH370 flight has indeed crashed.
Moments later, his Facebook post started circulating around the Internet on various sensational blogs and the suspension came accordingly. The Founder of AirAsia, Tony Fernandes announced the suspension of the pilot on his Twitter account as seen below.

The pilot then posted on Facebook to apologise but his account has since been disabled.
On Monday night, Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak announced that the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 “ended” in the southern Indian Ocean, angering the public and many family members of those on board the ill-fated plane.
The search for the missing plane goes on.
What do you think? Should they be punishing him for what he said?
