Saudi Arabia's minister of trade and industry was caught on camera waiting for his turn at a barber shop in the Gulf Kingdom, triggering wide applause from viewers.

A picture published in Saudi Arabia's Arabic language daily 'Sada' showed Tawfiq Al Rabea sat on the settee in the saloon as he checked his mobile phone.

Sada said the picture was published on social networks in Saudi Arabia and that the minister was lauded by a large number of viewers.

One viewer, Tarrad Al Omari said: "We know that barbers go to the ministers not vice versa. This is real modesty. May God preserve you. We are proud of you.”

Dheeb Al Daheem said:”May God safeguard you. Our country indeed needs people like you.”
