What happens when a crisis happens aka MH370

Into its 2nd week since MH370 'disappeared' and with 25 countries involved in the search, there has been many wild theories and rumors. It just shows a few things. While we cannot prevent disasters and accidents from happening, we can manage our reaction to it . The whole MH370 saga just amplifies major weaknesses in crisis management and human vulnerability. In the absence of information, rumors abound and there are new theories daily. I cant imagine the roller coaster rides the families go through. I think there has to be a better way to manage this whole situation. Really, someone has to be on top of things and stop drawing wild conclusions until the black box is found, until the plane is found. With so much resources pumped into the search, surely there is a dire need to coordinate better else resources will be wasted. Half the globe is involved! I certainly hope there will be closure for this soon!
