Onetime Chinese leader (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mao

'onetime chinese leader' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for mao that I've seen before include "Red" , "Former Chinese Chairman" , "- Zedong, Chinese communist leader" , "Eastern leader" , "Old Chinese "Chairman"" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
