Title: Anwar's Own MPs Reject Him in Shock Vote

A bill backed by Malaysia's Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim was narrowly defeated in parliament, revealing cracks in his ruling coalition. The proposal would have limited any prime minister to two terms, or 10 years in office. It was seen as an easy reform to pass. Yet on March 2, it failed by just two votes. Anwar leads a coalition with a supermajority in the 222-seat lower house. The loss suggests he could not secure full support from his own members of parliament. After the result was announced, television cameras showed Anwar laughing and talking with his deputy. The moment highlighted the surprising political setback for the self-described reformist leader.
