What a great thing for him to do. Far better than trying to ask his advisors to make reports about public services which don't reflect the reality. There was a programme also a few years ago broadcast on Showtime when he drove around Jordan on a motorbike and a camera crew filmed him making basically a tourist 'documentary' on the country.
The Emir of Qatar apparently does the same. He drives around in his car by himself and if he sees something he calls up the minister and tells him to fix it.
A colleague of mine said she was sitting at Burger King roundabout and was having a screaming match on the phone. She looked to the car to her left and there was a 'very familiar looking man' watching her and grinning at how demonstrative she was obviously being on the phone. it took her a few seconds to recognise who he was.
He didn't get her a ticket for being on her phone either..
