Tokyo, February 26

An AirAsia flight made an emergency landing on Monday in Japan's Okinawa prefecture due to problems in the engine, the Transport Ministry said here.

According to the ministry, none of the 379 passengers and crew members aboard the flight bound for Kuala Lumpur were injured, reports Xinhua news agency.

The plane's right engine indicated problems, forcing the captain to shut the troubled engine down and declare an emergency landing.

The plane touched down at Naha airport. The plane had initially departed from Tokyo's Haneda airport, the ministry added.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
