About Fiji Time (FJT)

Fiji Time (FJT, IANA: Pacific/Fiji) is the civil time of the Republic of Fiji, set at UTC+12:00. Fiji observes Daylight Saving Time (switching to FJST = UTC+13) from approximately early November to mid-January each year per Fijian government decree (the exact schedule varies by year — typically announced 1-2 months in advance by the Office of the Prime Minister). FJT is identical in offset to New Zealand Standard Time (NZST), Tuvalu Time, Marshall Islands Time, Wallis and Futuna Time, and Nauru Time. Fiji is one of the first inhabited countries to see each new calendar day (along with Kiribati's Line Islands at UTC+14 — the world's eastern-most permanent time zone), which has made Fiji a popular destination for 'first sunrise of the new year' tourism. FJT serves approximately 935,000 Fijian citizens across 332 islands (110 inhabited) including Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni, Kadavu. Major FJT cities: Suva (94K city, 175K metro — capital on Viti Levu), Nadi (45K — main international airport gateway + tourism hub on western Viti Levu), Lautoka (53K — second-largest city), Labasa (28K — Vanua Levu commercial center), Ba (15K), Levuka (1K — historic former capital + UNESCO World Heritage Site). Affects: South Pacific Stock Exchange (SPX) Suva trading, Fijian sugar-cane harvest export shipping, and Coral-coast + Mamanuca-island resort tourism.

About China Standard Time (CST)

China Standard Time (CST, IANA: Asia/Shanghai) is the unified civil time of the People's Republic of China, set at UTC+8:00 year-round (no DST). Despite China's vast east-west extent (~5,200 km from Xinjiang's western border at 73°E to Heilongjiang's eastern border at 135°E — 62° of longitude or ~4 hours of solar time), the entire country uses a single time zone since 1949 (consolidated from 5 separate zones used during the Republic of China era). This means Kashgar Xinjiang sees solar noon at approximately 14:00 CST in summer, while Shanghai sees solar noon at approximately 11:50 CST — a stark practical discrepancy. Hong Kong Time (HKT) and Macau Time (MOT) are identical at UTC+8 but use different IANA identifiers for historical reasons. CST serves approximately 1.42 billion people. CST is identical in offset to Singapore Time (SGT), Malaysia Time (MYT), Philippine Time (PHT), Australian Western Standard Time (AWST), Hong Kong Time (HKT). Major CST cities: Shanghai (24M), Beijing (21.5M), Chongqing (32M), Guangzhou (15M), Shenzhen (12.5M), Chengdu (16.3M), Tianjin (13.7M), Wuhan (11M), Xi'an (13M), Hangzhou (11.9M). Affects: SSE + SZSE stock exchanges, Beijing Central Government working hours.
