The Thai Sang Thai Party (TST) has not ruled out a possible merger with the Sang Anakhot Thai Party (SATP) as long as the latter does not support Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha's prolonged stay in power, it said. He said political parties will have to consolidate their support bases to secure the required number of seats. A merger would be possible if his ideology differs from that of the Prayut government's. SATP leader Uttama Savanayana said his party has been in talks with other parties including the TST about the political situation after the changes to the election law. He said it was too early to say whether the SATP and the TST could merge.
