José León Luna Gálvez (born 17 July 1955 in Huancavelica) is a Peruvian economist and politician originally from the National Solidarity party and a Congressman representing Lima.

José Luna

José Luna holds a Master in Economics and a Ph.D. in Education, both from the Universidad de San Martín de Porres. He is the owner and general manager of Telesup private distance learning university.

In 1999 Luna was a founding member of the centre-right National Solidarity party led by Luis Castañeda. Since that time, he has been a member of the political commission of the party, and since January 2011 he also has been Secretary General.

Luna was elected to Congress on the National Unity alliance list in 2000, 2001 and 2006. In the 2011 election he was re-elected for another five-year term on the National Solidarity ticket.

In 2018 he formed his own political party, Podemos Perú.

Telesup University

Over recent decades, Peru's tertiary education sector has dramatically expanded, and Peru had over 140 universities in 2019. Many of the 'degrees' are not recognised by any international body. Telesup was based in a Lima building, behind a seven-storey false facade; there were only four storeys. Sunedu, the state body regulating higher education standards, published a drone photograph of the site and blocked fresh student enrollments and gave Telesup two years to close. This has affected 20,000 or more students who will complete their studies at other licensed institutions. [1]

Apparently I can't get any sort of usable files off the Android app, and I've lost my actual Kindle hardware, so I've had to download some ancient version of their Windows client and run it in Wine.
