Tungkol sa buhay ni Jose Maria Sison
Bilang birthday wish, nais kong paigtingin ng mga rebolusyonaryong pwersa at malawak na masang api ang kanilang pakikibaka para sa pambansang kasarinlan at demokrasya laban sa imperyalismo ng US at Tsina at mga mapagsamantalang uri ng malalaking komprador, asendero at burukrata kapitalista.
