On Friday, Far Eastone Telecomm (4904 TT) announced in a Taiwan Stock Exchange filing that it would merge with long-suffering Asia Pacific Telecom (3682 TT) in a scrip merger.
The ratio chosen is a takeunder vs Friday's closing price terms. An 18.8% hit for APT shareholders. 
Shareholder structure suggests it gets done IF the FTC and NCC approve the deal, which would go against their approval last August of the FET capital injection into APT.
