The proposed constitutional amendment seeking to limit the prime minister's tenure does not undermine the powers of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong or the Conference of Rulers, electoral reform watchdog Bersih said.

In response to Perikatan Nasional MPs who opined the contrary yesterday, Bersih chairperson Faisal Aziz said that the Constitutional Amendment Bill falls outside the scope of Article 159(5), which specifically protects provisions that cannot be amended without the consent of the Conference of Rulers.
