PM term limit a step towards ‘mature democracy’


PETALING JAYA: The Opposition has been warned against engaging in “shallow politics” over Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s proposal to limit the tenure of the prime minister.

According to the Prime Minister’s senior press secretary Tunku Nashrul Abaidah, the proposal to cap the tenure at 10 years is not a new concept and does not contradict the Federal Constitution. Instead, it aligns with the principles of a mature democracy.
