THAILAND'S constitutional monarch yesterday approved a Cabinet reshuffle the government says will strengthen the ruling coalition as it grapples with deep-rooted problems following last month's bloody crackdown to end protests in Bangkok.
Eight new ministers are to step into the Cabinet to shore up the six-party coalition shaken by both aa May 19 army crackdown on anti-government protesters and a no-confidence vote in Parliament last week.
"The reshuffle has been made so the government could work together as a unit," Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva told reporters.
Yesterday's royal endorsement of the reshuffle came as Abhisit departed to Vietnam to attend a World Economic Forum of regional leaders where the government said he said he would update the international community on the progress of his reconciliation "road map" - his ideas for healing the country's political divide.
