What is the significance of Malaysia's decision to resume the search for MH370 after previous unsuccessful and costly attempts?

The Malaysian government has approved a $70 million deal with Ocean Infinity to resume the search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which disappeared in 2014 with 239 people onboard. The deal is contingent on finding the wreckage; if unsuccessful, Ocean Infinity will not receive payment. This decision follows previous unsuccessful searches, costing $150 million, and comes after new credible data emerged.
