Jose Maria Canlas Sison (February 8, 1939 – December 16, 2022), also known as Joma, was a Filipino Maoist revolutionary who founded the Communist Party of the Philippines.[1] He also founded the New People's Army in 1969, and the US-backed Ferdinand Marcos dictatorship imprisoned him until its overthrow in 1986. Sison later went into exile in the Netherlands but continued to lead the party from abroad.[2]
