Try tracing with the whois TCP port, to confirm whether a firewall or ACL
is blocking you :-

sudo traceroute -n --protocol=43 whois.apnic.net

traceroute to whois.apnic.net (202.12.29.220), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
 1  192.168.98.2  1.047 ms  0.975 ms  1.043 ms
 2  150.101.x.x  28.988 ms  29.557 ms  29.898 ms
 3  150.101.x.x  42.166 ms  44.698 ms  44.589 ms
 4  150.101.120.225  45.118 ms  44.760 ms  44.930 ms
 5  203.16.212.14  44.061 ms  41.055 ms  75.525 ms
