ADVERTISEMENT After two days of bruising debate, the six comfortably won Saturday's vote, the latest round in a political dogfight pitching Abhisit's three-month-old ruling coalition with supporters of ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra. The opposition had attacked Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya over his links to protest group the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD), which seized Bangkok's airports last year and brought chaos to the capital. While Abhisit won the vote 246-176 and the others saw similar support, Kasit had a slimmer 237-184 victory. "The 246 is more than I expected because as we know the MPs can vote freely," Abhisit said in his Sunday morning television address. "The decision to reshuffle the cabinet is based on performance," he said, explaining that he would not do so. "The foreign minister has explained himnself clearly." Lawmakers elected Abhisit in December after a court disbanded the People Power Party (PPP) loyal to Thaksin, who was ousted in a 2006 coup and is despised by the traditional power bases in the palace, army and bureaucracy. Kasit has faced criticism for his vocal support of the PAD, which held months of protests until the PPP was outlawed, but he remained bullish on Sunday. "Thaksin and his fellows know that we have different stands on politics, but when we have different positions on politics, we do not sling mud," he said. The opposition Puea Thai party is made up of remnants of the PPP and still retains exiled Thaksin's backing, but has lost much of its clout as key members have defected to Abhisit's Democrat Party-led coalition. Opposition MPs had sought during the no-confidence debate to show the current government was illegitimate and accused the British-born Abhisit of certifying false financial statements for the Democrat Party.
