Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia, with a population of about 8,540,121. It uses the Western Indonesia Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Jakarta).
Jakarta does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+7 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.
Other cities on the same clock include Surabaya.
Because Jakarta lies at 6.21° S, 106.85° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 11 h 46 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 12 h 29 min.
