About Atlantic Standard Time (AST)

Atlantic Standard Time (AST, IANA: America/Halifax, America/Puerto_Rico) is the time zone for the Canadian Maritime provinces and most of the Caribbean, set at UTC-4:00. AST is observed in: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Labrador (partially), Newfoundland's Labrador portion, eastern Quebec, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Bermuda, Anguilla, Antigua, Aruba, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, Curaçao, Dominica, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela (since 2007). Canadian Maritime provinces observe AST in winter and switch to ADT = UTC-3:00 in summer per the Energy Policy Act-aligned Canadian schedule. The Caribbean territories (Puerto Rico, USVI, Bermuda) and US territories observe AST year-round without DST per their territorial governments. AST is the same offset as EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) during US summer months, so Halifax and New York are on the same clock in summer but Halifax is one hour ahead in winter.

About Philippine Time (PHT)

Philippine Time (PHT, IANA: Asia/Manila) — also called Philippine Standard Time (PST) — is the civil time of the Republic of the Philippines, set at UTC+8:00 year-round (no DST). Philippines observed Daylight Saving Time briefly between 1936-1938 and 1942-1944 during Japanese occupation, but has remained on PHT year-round since 1944. The Philippine Standard Time Act of 2013 (Republic Act 10535) established PHILMET — the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) — as the official timekeeper, and mandated that all government clocks display synchronized PHT. PHT is identical in offset to China Standard Time (CST), Hong Kong Time (HKT), Singapore Time (SGT), Malaysia Time (MYT), Brunei Time (BNT), Australian Western Standard Time (AWST). PHT serves approximately 117 million Filipino people across 7,641 islands organized into 17 regions + 81 provinces. Major Philippine cities: Manila + NCR (1.8M city, 13.5M metro — National Capital Region also called Metro Manila is the world's most densely populated metropolitan area), Quezon City (3M — NCR), Caloocan (1.7M — NCR), Davao (1.8M — Mindanao), Cebu (1M — Visayas), Zamboanga (980K). Affects: PSE (Philippine Stock Exchange) trading hours, BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) industry shift schedules.
