Leader of the House Indranee Rajah and Progress Singapore Party secretary-general Leong Mun Wai.

The post on PSP's Facebook page - which was put up at about 11.20pm on Tuesday - was captioned, "In what some online commenters are calling anothermoment. The PSP's Leong Mun Wai and Hazel Poa Koon Koon are here to do whatever it takes to ensure that the voice of the people is heard."It also included a video of Leong - a non-constituency Member of Parliament - engaged in an exchange with De Souza, with superimposed text.

De Souza clarified during Wednesday's Parliament session that he had in fact called on Leong five times during the Ridout Road debate, and the NCMP was allowed to asked more than 10 questions on Monday. He added that, while the Ridout Road ministerial statement and debate lasted six hours, he had felt that not all the questions were asked nor did the replies clarify all the facts. The was why he "got a little excited" during the session and said he needed more time."I don't think I have conducted myself disrespectfully at all.
