This took place at time when the US was both occupying Japan, and continuing its research into hypnosis as a military tool, with the likes of George Estabrooks, who was active during the second world war. The cold war was gearing up, and things were a little odd in terms of what was considered sanctioned activities.I
I suspect this was a psy-op experiment to see what could be achieved by an intelligence operative given certain hypnosis training - just how far can you suspend disbelief in an unsuspecting, but well trained subject. And it worked in that the operative managed to Jedi mind trick the airport authorities into letting him check into a hotel, which he then walked out of, and return to his base.

Note: the last link details a CIA Program that started in 1953 (officially).
Edit: (I originally misread the date from OP as 1950, and had a comment here that it could have been a precursor to mkultra, which started in 53. In rereading OP, I realise the incident fell inside the mkultra timeframe)
As an interesting side note, lee Harvey Oswald spent some time on a military base in japan (us naval base) in 1957, where some conspiracy theorists suggest he was involved in some MK ultra style program, which further suggests that the practice of psychological experiments in offshore bases, Japan specifically.

Also, why go to the bother of programming him with info about a past in a country that did not exist? A programmed assassin should 'fit in' to the area that he is doing his operation. Programming with that kind of weird info would guarantee that he wouldn't 'fit in' anywhere on our planet!
The simple reason is to demonstrate how effective the program is.

Wouldn't programming him with a false background that included a home country that existed be an effective test?
I suppose that one could argue that they wanted to see how he handled being disbelieved by everyone that he came into contact with when he arrived in Japan. But you could also have done the test on a movie stage set up in a deserted location with the same results, and not end up with a mind-screwed assassin running around at large.

1981?
This guy seemed that he was suffering from schizophrenia. Or he could have gotten a head injury since many people claim to do things like that.
