UTRECHT, The Netherlands (The Adobo Chronicles, Berlin Bureau) – Exiled Communist Party Leader Joma Sison has denied saying that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is in a coma.

Speaking to The Adobo Chronicles, Sison said he has been misquoted by local and international media.

”What I said was that Duterte was in a ‘Jomatose’, not ‘comatose.’ 

Asked what he meant by ‘Jomatose,’ Sison said it refers to the fact that Duterte seems to be so obsessed about him in statement after statement on the botched peace talks between the government and the Communist Party of the Philippines headed by Joma.

Joma + tose = Jomatose.  Maybe, Joma should change his name to Coma Sison.
