The Pacific always seems to miss out on these opportunities. Even though invitations go out to "Asia-Pacific", they usually only ask Asia. Yet, we are all developing countries in the Pacific. We just don't show up on everyone else's maps.

Am I the only one who is puzzled by the location in DC for a course targeting the LAC region?

Not really.  Twice a year I teach a day at the US Telecommunications Training Institute in DC to a bunch of low level technocrats from developing countries in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean.  They come for a while, it's half course and half junket.  DC is where the money is.
