The problem that almost nobody mentions with hiring devs in a poor country: Programmers are well paid in comparison with general population. That attracts people that have no talent/love for the domain. People that are in it only for the money. The bigger the difference in earnings compared with the general population, the more of this you'll get. I live in such a country. Offerings of 'mentorship' and training (in three months or so) for good money are plenty. They make a lot of 'programmers' that know almost nothing and you'll have a good chance of getting those if you outsource blindly (not if you verify them, ask them for a university diploma on the domain and so on).
