I am sorry, but I do not have sufficient information to answer this question.
The kanji 党 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字). The left side is a radical called 口(くち, kuchi, meaning "mouth"). The right side is 尚 (しょう, shō, meaning "still" or "esteem"). It is believed that the original meaning of the character was "people who speak the same words" or "people who share the same opinions". The 口 part gives a hint of the character's meaning being related to speech, while 尚 provides the sound and the idea of "still" or "shared." Over time, the character evolved to represent a group of people sharing the same ideas, thus "party" or "faction."
