One lucky thing that transpired in this incident is that the whole Medina-Corpuz conversation was PRESERVED IN BLACK AND WHITE. Since Frank cannot speak, he brought a piece of bond paper so that they can write their exchanges of questioning. Medina wrote the question, then Corpuz responded through writing. Nowhere in their written conversations that Frank mentioned that he will go to Qatar for work. What's worst is that Medina, wrote his reason that he cannot allow Frank to go abroad because HE CANNOT SPEAK! He then made his final three-letter statement - OUT! Now that is a clear evidence that Franklin was discriminated because he was deaf.
Discrimination is written all over the Immigration Office
