The great majority (86%) of those who know the motto (heard, saw or read about it) like it. Of the respondents who are familiar with it, over two thirds (68%) said it is aimed at prompting Jordanians to active political participation. More than three-quarters (77%) reported that the document would encourage citizens to participate more actively in socioeconomic development.
