Queen Rania receives Honorary Citizenship of Milan Award
AMMAN (JT) — Her Majesty Queen Rania was granted the Honorary Citizenship of Milan Award on Saturday, in recognition for her work and social contributions on the international front.
Milan Mayor Gabriele Albertini, who conferred the citizenship on the Queen in an official ceremony yesterday, praised all her efforts, particularly those “demonstrated towards universal themes, which have always taken up the plight of the most vulnerable people, including the protection of children's rights, education and policies in favour of the young, support to children whose lives have been damaged by war and conflict.”
He went on to say that Queen Rania's “personal and direct engagement, within the framework of the promotion of women's rights, freedom, growth and prosperity and through initiatives aimed at spreading economic development, culture, art and other human endeavours” are all deemed “milestones in the progress of all nations.” http://www.jordanembassyus.org/09042005003.htm
Iam sorry, but is this some kind of joke?? I can think of 100 other people who do a lot more than her and recieve no recognition what so ever.They should choose people who do good for humanity because they want to, not because they are Queens and Kings. Thanks for the article, Humera.:)

how do you know they dont choose people who arent Kings and Queens? Just because we see a picture of Rania receiving it? Do you know the entire list of people who have received this award?
One group of people doesnt have to be recognized at the expense of another.
Queen Rania actually has received similar awards in Milan and other parts of Italy over the past few years.
Im sure these organizations give out awards after doing their homework.
Maybe you should do some research and find out if they only give out awards to royals.
No offence, but just because you happen to know people who, in your view, do a lot more than Rania doesnt mean the entire world, or even the mayor of Milan is going to know about them. Nor is it necessary that they receive every award under the sun.

Queen Rania awarded honorary citizenship by Milan

personally I think it is good that famous people give a good example and I noticed that some of famous people use the media craze about them and turned it to some thing positive through turned the media attention on important cases and in the same time the human organization get a big benefits , and I know that some of those famous people do it just for show , to let every one talk about how they are great and how they an angels etc ... but it does not bother me if there show will help people in need and I will not be sad if they take awards for there humanitarian works ( any way it is just my opinion ) :)
