Malaysia's Prime Minister Najib Razak Friday said his country will give an account of the missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 to the families of the passengers as soon as possible.

Najib made the remarks in a meeting here with top Chinese legislator Zhang Dejiang at the Great Hall of the People Friday afternoon, Xinhua reported citing the foreign ministry.

He also expressed deep condolence for the families.

Zhang said China will continue to participate in the relevant work and expressed hope that the Malaysian side will make more efforts and properly handle the incident at an early date.

On Thursday, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang urged Malaysia to formulate a new plan for the search for the plane to respond to the legitimate appeals of passengers' families and to properly settle such issues.

Najib said Malaysia will continue to conduct the search together with China, Australia and other countries and stressed his commitment to finding solutions and answers to what really happened.
