Hmm-mm... the "Phase 2" bit of the second advisory is interesting. It's not enough to just visit the countries, the trips have to be "unexplained" or explained in a way that "lacks credibility".</font>
Who wants to bet that all of the following explanations would, in the US government's infinite wisdom, "lack credibility":
  • "I was on holiday."
  • "I was sightseeing."
  • "I was relaxing on the beach."
  • "My employer does considerable business in Kuala Lumpur."

This is yet another weapon of mass harassment for whimsical immigration officers who are convinced that everyone coming to the USA is a terrorist waiting to be "weeded out".
