China on Monday urged Malaysia to step up international cooperation and mobilize all available resources in the continued search for missing Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370.

The search for MH370 must not stop even for a moment before the wreckage is found, Chinese vice Foreign Minister Zhang Yesui said while meeting with visiting Malaysian Deputy Foreign Minister Hamzah Zainuddin.

Zhang said the search for the missing plane is still the top priority at the current stage, and that China will continue to input more resources into the search.

"China hopes the Malaysian side will share the information and data it has, comprehensively and immediately, " he said.

Zhang also said the search and investigation should push forward in parallel to strive for a breakthrough at an early date, adding that Chinese experts would like to fully cooperate with the Malaysian side.

Zhang expressed the hope that the Malaysian side can meet the reasonable demands of the families of the Chinese passengers on the missing plane.

Hamzah said the Malaysian side appreciates China's assistance in the search and investigation, as well as in the efforts to appease families of the Chinese passengers.

The Malaysian side will insist on the search continuing, said Hamzah, pledging that his country will never give up until it finds the missing plane and will carry out an in-depth investigation.
