Why is Shahrizat so important or so powerful that both Najib and ex-prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had to confer her ministerial status, despite her losing the parliamentary seat, marred by the cow-gate scandal and not contesting in the 2013 General Election?

It was reported that UMNO's senior leader Shahrizat Abdul Jalil has been appointed Special Advisor to Prime Minister Najib on women and social development affairs, with ministerial status.
Why is Shahrizat so important or so powerful that both Najib and ex-prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had to confer her ministerial status, despite her losing the parliamentary seat, marred by the cow-gate scandal and not contesting in the 2013 General Election?
Shahrizat lost in the 2008 General Election, then was appointed special advisor to the Prime Minister with ministerial status before she was made a full minister through the appointment as Senator.
However, fate was not on her side with the exposure of the NFC (National Feedlot Corporation) scandal, which cost her the ministership and was not appointed as a candidate for the general election in May 2013.
And now, we hear that she is made an advisor again with ministerial status.
Is that an abuse of tax payers' money? Can't she find another job with her legal background and experience as minister? Does she have something that can decide the careers of prime ministers? Is she such an important contribution to the country?
There are interesting stories not told.
