Internet is a bit expensive and intermittent here. I accidentally deleted my email files (letters and addresses) and when I checked my back-ups I found the system hadn't backed up since I arrived, because of the intermittent connections. It took me 2 days to retrieve most things from other files.
It got me thinking; even if it worked properly, backing up just my email file to the cloud (which I do at home without thinking about it) would cost about £5 in internet charges. That's bad enough for me, but this is a poor country and about 70% of the population have less than that to survive on for 6 days.
