Johan Somaroe (Jan) Kolhoe (c. 1918) was a member of the Surinamese parliament in the 1950s and 1960s.

He attended the Paulus school and then he had a career in education. From 1941 to 1950 he was a teacher on Curaçao and after that he was a school principal in the district of Nickerie.[1] At the 1955 Surinamese general election he was a shadow candidate for the VHP and three years later the two seats in the Estates of Suriname for the Nickerie district went to the NOP members Poetoe and Kolhoe. At the 1963 elections he unsuccessfully ran for Action Front in the Saramacca district and in 1973 the same happened when he was an NPS candidate at that district.[2] Kolhoe would become chief inspector of education after which he retired.[3]
