Feng Zhenghu to Return to China – Spent 3 months living in Narita Airport

Submitted By: Jonathan Green 5 February 2010 245 views No Comment

A Chinese activist who has spent more than three months living inside Tokyo’s international airport said Tuesday that Chinese officials have given him permission to return home.

Feng Zhenghu has been camping out at Narita International Airport since early November to protest China’s refusal to let him enter his homeland. Feng had angered the Chinese government with writings on alleged wrongdoing by local authorities and for supporting student protests.

Feng had already announced Sunday that he had decided to end his protest after meeting with officials from the Chinese Embassy last week. But it wasn’t clear until Tuesday whether China would allow him to re-enter the country – he had been denied entry eight times since June, prompting his protest.
