In richer countries, Java is often used by big companies and universities, so many people learn it for stable, higher-paying jobs. Java tends to power big, complex systems that companies in those places build and keep running. In developing countries, JavaScript is easier to start with because it runs in every web browser, has lots of free tools, and is great for building websites and small apps. Many people there focus on web and mobile work or freelancing, so JavaScript skills are more useful and in demand.
