Workers' Party (WP) MP Jamus Lim said in Parliament that it is just as possible to oversave as it is to undersave.
People's Action Party MP Sitoh Yih Pin took issue with this, saying that for Singapore, "there is no such thing as oversaving".
It prompted a sharp exchange in Parliament as WP MP Leon Perera jumped in to press Mr Sitoh on his position.
