and a follow-up makes clear that, although this was claimed on a Philippines island, they reported on to the police in the Malaysian part of Borneo: http://www.thestar.com.my/News/Nation/2015/10/11/Philippines-Malaysian-flag/

There are hundreds of additional private aircraft and classified military and government flights that have vanished over the same time period across the planet. Most of them probably went down in water, or in remote sparsely populated corners of the Earth...kind of like this one.
While we're right to be skeptical about the plane being MH370, it's entirely possible that the islanders have stumbled across the wreckage of some other missing plane.
