No! No 90 year-old Japanese soldiers for you:

Fresh reports that an elderly man in the southern Philippines was a Japanese soldier left over from World War II were dismissed on Thursday by local police and Japan's embassy in Manila as a hoax.

He was the third man reported to be an Imperial Army soldier who stayed back in hiding in the Philippines after the end of the war. The other two never showed up and an intermediary who promised to bring them to the city was dismissed as untrustworthy.

Didn't stop the Japanese media from descending in a frenzy, but that's what they're good at after all.
