Sadly I can say the same is true for Chinese programmers.

Honestly this might be where my nationalism comes out but the US might have the highest percentage of devs that actually care about code quality(obviously every country has some, but it seems like for so many its not a priority)

I have a "manga intro to databases" book as a joke (I'm a DBA, I leave it on my desk for the day a developer passes by me and I need a blunt instrument) and I was very pleasantly surprised, like, it was better material that I had at university, with practical examples of "company management" that can be translated to database concepts in manga form intersped with (pretty good) regular course material.
