Decay in Latin America and Caribbean

economic disasters are natural:

currency collapses (IT resources sold in dollars), buy equipment but cannot support it

less support, little competition, higher costs (for first-world companies)

What to do? think "sustainable"

• solutions small but redundant (use more labor?)
• work within region - many problems shared, first-response, amortize costs, negotiate volume
• develop stakeholders for IT, develop local human resources
