Another factor is that in less developed countries outsourced projects are the norm. Those projects tend to look for cheap work force instead of skilled developers. Therefore a lot of projects tend to have poor code quality. Basically you have thousands of developers working most of their career in poor implemented projects. It becomes a vicious circle. If you live in a less developed country and you choose to work for outsource companies you have to be careful about choosing good quality projects, otherwise you could spend years learning bad practice after bad practice.
