Singapore is the capital of Singapore, with a population of about 5,638,700. It uses the Singapore Standard Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Singapore).
Singapore does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+8 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 Shanghai, Chongqing, Chengdu, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen.
Because Singapore lies at 1.29° N, 103.85° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 12 h 12 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 12 h 03 min.
