Muhammad Ramadan: The honorary doctorate raises controversy over its validity and the right to grant it, so what is its history?

But it didn’t last long, until the German Embassy in Egypt and the Artists’ Union in Lebanon lied to the news.

The German Embassy in Egypt denied Germany’s relations with the German Cultural Center, which awarded a doctorate in Ramadan and said: “Not all institutions that use the word Germany are affiliated with the German government.

As for the Syndicate of Actors in Lebanon, it released a statement on Thursday, led by Captain Neama Badawi, refuting what was broadcast.

The Syndicate declared: “It is important that the Syndicate of Actors of Theater, Cinema, Radio and Television in Lebanon (the Syndicate of Actors) make it clear to the Lebanese, Egyptian and Arab public opinion that he did not participate in this honor, neither near nor far, and it is not the authority authorized to grant the titles of ambassadors or other titles. “.

The Syndicate also confirmed that “since its creation in 1948, it has not given any title to any Arab or Lebanese artist”.

She added: “We refuse to include the name and history of our union in superficial and superficial matters, as our persistence is to defend and support the rights of the Lebanese representative and to establish the best relations with the unions. Arab brothers “.

After official institutions denied the news of honoring Ramadan, the Egyptian singer posted a photo of himself gathering with his son in his private plane and wrote: “I only look behind me to take a photo “.

Ramadan’s announcement of obtaining a doctorate sparked a wave of astonishment on social media, with many photos reposted of his doctorate and the title of “Young Arab Ambassador”, not believing the news .

The tweets mocked the news of getting a doctorate from Ramadan, and some said that “one of the reasons he awarded him an honorary doctorate from the German Cultural Center is the movie Ramadan was in. represented in 2012 under the name of L’Allemand “.

While others have said the reason for this was his theory, which “doesn’t associate a constant with a motive,” which includes a reference to the lyrics of his song Thabet.

Others commented on the German Center’s PhD in Lebanon, written in Arabic and English instead of German.

On Twitter, the Egyptians demanded certificates similar to those obtained by Ramadan.

“In my opinion, there is no need to study anymore,” Mahmoud wrote in a tweet.

Yahya called the granting of Ramadan the title of “Arab Youth Ambassador” “unfair”, pointing to examples of many Egyptian graduates who do not work in their field, but in simple, low-paying jobs.

The Egyptian Prime Minister, Mostafa Madbouly, had taken the decision to form a ministerial committee whose aim is to benefit holders of masters and doctorates and to facilitate the search for jobs suited to their expertise.

Many Egyptians suffer from unemployment and lack of sufficient opportunities, which calls them to work in fields that may not be relevant to their studies and experiences.

As for Ramadan, he generally arouses controversy on social networks, whether with his statements or with the clothes he wears during his concerts.

Ramadan was widely criticized after a video broadcast of him throwing papers that looked like money in the air and entering the swimming pool. The Egyptian singer has already received a scathing attack on social media when he posted a photo of himself meeting with Israelis at a party in Dubai.
