Why is one civil servant allowed to sit on so many boards?

One civil servant, 30 bods

ROCKY'S BRU

Felda the feudal mini-empire. One top civil servant in Felda sits on the thrones of dozens of Felda boards (see list above! below). And his services are not FOC. He pays himself more than RM600,000 as directors of those BoDs. This is money from the blood, sweat and tears of 112,000 settlers. And you wonder why some dudes would turn his back on the Government and the settler families to safeguard his own welfare!
