He was born in Calapan, Oriental Mindoro, and his grandfather, Juan Morente Nieva, also served as the governor of Marinduque from 1907 to 1916.
Jose Antonio "Bong" Nieva Carrion (June 19, 1948 – March 27, 2017) was a Filipino politician, who was a governor of the province of Marinduque, in the Philippines.
Carrion first became the governor of Marinduque during the 1995 gubernatorial election.
He served from 1995 to 1998.
It was during his term as governor that the Marcopper mining disaster happened in Boac, Marinduque.
Known as one of the largest mining disasters in the Philippines, it was estimated it would take 25 years and 300 million pesos to rehabilitate the area.
Carrion unsuccessfully ran for re-election thrice as a member of the Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino party, in 1998, 2001, and in 2004.
Carrion ran again in 2007 as an independent and successfully won the election, defeating the incumbent Carmencita Reyes.
Carrion promised to focus on transforming Marinduque to an eco-tourism spot during his second incumbency as governor, detailing an 8-point Execute Agenda during his State of the Provincial Address.
Carrion also spent his second term building infrastructure in the province, through coordinating with baranggay units in the creation of farm-to-market roads, construction of school buildings, and institution of agricultural programs.
In 2010, Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez ordered the stoppage of a "midnight deal" involving allegedly overpriced personal computers worth over P18 million.

One of the suspects, Rodolfo Edrad, Jr. confessed shortly after and claimed to be a former bodyguard of Carrion's. In Edrad's confession, he named Carrion and former Palawan governor Joel Reyes as the masterminds of the assassination.
Carrion confirmed that Edrad was indeed a former security aide, however, he denied ever talking to him about any plot.
Ultimately, the Department of Justice dismissed all charges against him and 5 others implicated in the assassination plot due to lack of sufficient evidence to indict them.
