There is a meeting survey at 
https://iaoc.ietf.org/documents/Venue-Preference-Survey-2014.pdf  The 
country mentioned above is not listed as a venue preference.  There 
was a survey in 2010 ( 
https://iaoc.ietf.org/documents/Meetings-Venue-Preference-Survey-Aug2010.pdf 
).  A comment on Page 36 is related to this thread.
