The Philippine Marxist–Leninist Party (Tagalog: Partido Marxista–Leninista ng Pilipinas, PMLP) is a communist party in the Philippines. Established in 2001 from the remnant of the Alex Boncayao Brigade known as the Bloke, which earlier broke from Popoy Lagman's Manila–Rizal Regional Party Committee and Arturo Tabara's Revolutionary Workers' Party.
Its armed wing, more known by its Tagalog name Partisano, conducts assassinations of government officials which are regarded as 'enemies of the people′ as a strategy for igniting a proletarian revolution in the country.
