Dr. Luke Robinson, PhD in Film and Media from the University of Sussex (UK), confirmed that the image of the diploma provided by People's Artist Bach Tuyet is not a standard Doctorate (PhD) certificate.

"It could be an honorary doctorate. But I have to say I don't know if there's a standard format for that kind of certification. I've never seen anything like it before," said Dr. Luke Robinson.

According to Dr Luke Robinson, the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) has never awarded a PhD, either now or in 1995.

"They have honorary members, but I don't think they give out honorary doctorates. So the whole thing is quite strange," Dr Luke Robinson stressed.

The representative of People's Artist Bach Tuyet responded further: "The effort to study an art program at a prestigious Drama Academy abroad, for a national artist, is nothing more than the goal of better understanding and promoting the valuable assets of the Cai Luong theater genre in particular, and national culture in general, to the public in all regions. As well as, from there, it is possible to enrich the source of creativity, renew the Cai Luong art in the true spirit of this Southern theater genre."
