Cambodia's two main opposition have again proposed a merger to contest the next general election.
The Phnom Penh Post reports the Sam Rainsy Party and the Human Rights Party say they will run for the 2012 poll under the one banner.
President of the Human Rights Party, Kem Sokha, says the alliance has been struck at an opportune moment for rallying a growing number of people rejecting the ruling Cambodian People's Party.
He says, however, the merger will not be immediate or comprehensive.
