In light of the current circumstances that the country is going through in terms of economic crises and challenges, artist Mustafa Kamel, head of the Syndicate of Musical Professions, appealed to state officials with a number of proposals in which he expressed his full support for state institutions, while presenting a number of demands related to the repercussions of rationalization decisions on owners of night professions.
Mustafa Kamel calls for decisions regarding rationalization and its impact on night professions
The head of the Musicians Syndicate, the artist Mustafa Kamel, said on his Facebook page: “Reality forces everyone to support the state in all the decisions it takes to confront the current crisis imposed on us by (the irreligious). Those who disbelieve in God, His creation, and the livelihood of His creation are burning the entire world. What is astonishing and illogical is the silence of the international community, with its organizations, entities, and leaders, over all this bullying, immorality, decadence, lack of conscience, no religion, and no religion.” “Principle.”
He added: The reality is a big, heavy, and frightening crisis, and its consequences are even harsher. The reality, without a doubt, carries material, moral, and economic damage to a country that suffers from the weight of worries, troubles, and debts, a country that is being plotted by machinations from all fronts, north, south, east, and west, and even from some of its own sons, the traitor, the lurker, the always resentful, the rejecter without reason, the critic without a goal, the accuser without understanding, the fool, and the fool. The corrupt, the bribed, the thug, etc., is a state that whenever it tries to recover from its diseases, pains, troubles, and debts, the entire geographical existence stops to tell it no (you are Egypt), the neighbor of the beloved occupied Palestine, the divided Sudan, and the divided Libya.
He pointed out: I do not know why I always see Egypt (Virginia in the movie Al-Nasser Saladin). I see it as beautiful, the beauties that many are jealous of and want to distort in shape and form, even from some of its own children whom I mentioned previously. The reality is destined and God has destined and what He wills is done, and God’s command is inevitably enforced, but it comes from great wisdom that may be hidden from the servants, believing in it, O Lord, and hoping in your mercy, and believing in destiny brings contentment and sincerity of trust. And take reasons.
Kamel said: For the third time, I address His Excellency the Prime Minister, Dr. Mostafa Madbouly, the Minister of Tourism, Dr. Sherif Fathi, the ministers, and the representatives of the People’s Assembly and the Senate with the following:
First: I will remain Egyptian to the last drop of my blood. I love my country, strive for its leadership, sovereignty, and dignity, respect its constitution and law, and appreciate and respect the size, value, effort, and effort of those who lead decision-making in my country, starting with Mr. President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, President of the Republic, and passing through all ministers and officials.
Since I am one of the officials within my beloved country and a shepherd of one of the segments of society, they must appreciate the extent of the crisis, bear the harm caused, be patient with the affliction, respect the solutions put in place, and adhere to what is approved and implemented. Yes, our country has been unjust in an inhuman battle that it has no business in, but as we have learned, equality in injustice is justice.
Second: Your Excellency’s rationalization decision must be borne by everyone. Our dear Egypt is the love of the Arab brothers for its natural Egypt, the Egypt of the arts, the Egypt of Hussein, Khan al-Khalili, the Nile, the pyramids, the steamship, the restaurant, the café, and the Hummus cart in the Levant in the winter. Our dear Egypt does not accept that two-thirds of its children earn their living from those with day jobs only, and for hunger and destitution to kill those with night jobs.
He added: “Our dear Egypt is not satisfied with an entire tourist boat and an entire hotel being illuminated, and a small tourist facility next to them is closed meters away from it. Our dear Egypt is not satisfied with villas and palaces being illuminated day and night, and a simple wedding hall in one of the governorates being closed. Our dear Egypt has apartments whose lighting exceeds the consumption loads of small restaurants whose lighting is modest. Our dear Egypt has more than 100,000 compounds, God willing. The number of tourist facilities and cafes that consume electricity. Our dear Egypt has a due return from taxes and insurance on all workers in tourist facilities. Otherwise, it is possible and permissible to bear the burden of its financial increase for rationalization instead of closure and displacement.
He pointed out that our dear Egypt must distribute the burden and the crisis to everyone, as it is difficult for the human soul to find two colleagues in the same profession, one singing in the hotel and the other crying at home. Our dear Egypt was and still is stronger than the crisis, thanks to God and the efforts of your Excellency, which was missed (only) and without intending to estimate the extent of the damage inflicted on the owners of night professions.
He continued his words. Our dear Egypt has one of its institutions, which is the Syndicate of Musical Professions, and it will stand by its people, God willing, as much as possible and available, but for how long? And why? Unfortunately, this will be done at the expense of its pension fund and its subsidies for the elderly, the sick, and orphans?
He stressed that the status quo requires Your Excellency to place the burden on everyone, to appreciate the living conditions of professionals tonight, and to remember the supplication of the Master of Creation, O God, I seek refuge in You from the dominance of religion and the oppression of men.
He concluded by talking about myself, my person, and my capacity: If the lighting in my house causes hunger for the family of a music colleague, a café worker, or a cook in a restaurant, then I will give up on it.
