KUALA LUMPUR: A proposal to limit the prime minister's tenure to two terms can be implemented based on convention and does not necessarily require an amendment to the Federal Constitution, the Opposition claimed.

Amanah deputy president Salahuddin Ayub cited the Britain's practice of a term limit by convention, suggesting that the Opposition could seek a similar avenue for Malaysia if wins the next general election.
