Jehovah’s Witnesses’s governing body commanded during some political turmoil in Malawi to remain “politically neutral”, aka: to not register to vote something on a dictatorship of some sort that was under persecution punishment to death. Basically, they refused a trivial bureaucracy and face horrible and evitable consequences when they were forced to do so,resulting in the alleged death and torture of many of the cult followers. At the same time, in Mexico, there was an obligatory military service and the Governing Body said that bribing and making shit up so they have the paper that demonstrates the military service done, it was the wisest thing to do.

In Malawi, you just had to pay some fee for a paper. In Mexico you needed to do military service just to have a paper. In Malawi, many people died for this trivial shit. Not in Mexico. Why? My guess is that Mexico is under the US, and Malawi has the Atlantic Ocean of distance +Eurasia being closer.

So they preferred the African martyrs before the Latino ones, so they didn’t have them crossing the border while also using them all as propaganda.
