By that, she is far more approachable, unsnobbish and willing to listen to the handicapped community whenever they are around her.
She also seems to understand the disabled's right to self-determination (speaking up for themselves) far more than her other counterparts have in years.
But will this be enough to exonerate her from the serious and troubling accusations that have been hurled against her?
Here's her response to her detractors on Bernama courtesy of Malaysiakini:
Shahrizat is ready to face accusations over NFC
Shahrizat
Abdul Jalil, who is scheduled to resume duties as Women, Family and
Community Development Minister on Wednesday after three weeks' leave,
said today she is not afraid to face accusations over the National
Feedlot Corporation (NFC) issue.
The Wanita Umno chief said the allegations hurled at her have made her more spirited to face all kinds of tests.
"It's okay. We are politicians. We become more spirited when we are subjected to tests," she told reporters at an event to consolidate the Wanita BN election machinery in Beruas. The event was launched by Perak Menteri Besar Zambry Abdul Kadir.
Shahrizat was asked to comment on a statement by PKR director of strategy Rafizi Ramli that the party would greet Shahrizat's return from leave with more revelations of alleged malpractices involving her family.
Shahrizat was faced with the issue of the NFC, helmed by her husband Mohamad Salleh Ismail, after the 2010 report of the auditor-general released last October stated that the NFC had failed to achieve its target.
The issue heated up after the opposition alleged irregularities over the RM250 million government allocation to NFC.
The National Feedlot Centre is a project in Gemas, Negeri Sembilan, aimed at boosting the production of beef to reduce dependence on import of the meat.
On Wanita Umno's preparation to face the next general election, Shahrizat said she would ensure that the election machinery is always at the ready.

Only in Malaysia, Ministers can behave the way sharizat does. Everyone knows our govt practices corrupt system. There is no denying.

With the Prime Minister keeping silent on the issue, it only goes to say that the govt is not serious about corruption.
