Japanese immigration barred entry to Malaysia's opposition leader, Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim at the Tokyo Kansai Airport this morning and had him return back to Kuala Lumpur immediately.
As one backed by the American, he would not have expected a strong American allies like Japan to refuse him entry. Naturally, the American blueboy is fuming mad and one would expect him to blame others but himself.
Below is an image of Anwar's social media posting trying to explain his version of the incidence before it is publicly known and give rise to speculation that will tarnish his reputation:
He is being denied entry by the Japanese authority but why must Foreign Minister Dato Anifah Aman owe him an explaination ?
Does he have a diplomatic passport to provide him immunity from any offense made in the past to disallow him entry?
We were with friends when the news broke to us. One friend speculated that he may have wrongly filled the entry form to state the purpose of entry as "liwat" instead of "lawat". Off course, he was kidding.
Taken that it does not make sense to deny him entry for the 1999 conviction now. Since his release after serving time for the offense of abusing his power, he has entered Japan on three occasions since.
So what is the thing Anwar described as "because of the latest report" possibbly in 2013?
He was acquited from the sodomy charges and will only face the appeal this year. Recently, he ws acquited also from the charge for participating in the illegal assembly Bersih 2.0. It is not likely for any offenses in Malaysia.
So ... what did he do when he last entered Japan in 2012? The Japanese should know better about what happened.
Will Anwar own up to his own misdeed? No ... it is most unlikely to ever happen.
