Malaysia Beleaguered Government

The opposition political alliance that has threatened to unseat Malaysia's longtime regime has collapsed amid a dispute over Islamic law, a top leader said today, in what analysts called a boon for the country's beleaguered government.

A Malaysian family on Friday sued the government and beleaguered national carrier for negligence in the mysterious disappearance of flight MH370, in what is believed to be the first lawsuit filed over the disaster.
