Three more Perikatan Nasional MPs have joined government-linked boardrooms over the past days.
Shahbudin Yahaya (Bersatu-Tasek Gelugor) [above, centre] was named chairperson of the Federal Land Consolidation and Rehabilitation Authority (Felcra) Bhd.
This is a company owned by the Finance Ministry and manages plantations and farmland settlement programmes.
The previous head was corporate man Mohamad Nageeb Ahmad Abdul Wahab.
Ahmad Johnie Zawawi (PBB-Igan) [above, left] was named as non-executive chairperson of Indah Water Consortium (IWK) last week.
The company is also owned by the Finance Ministry and is tasked with treating wastewater.
