Why people convert Colombia to MYT time

Scheduling a call from Colombia to MYT: a 10:00 AM start in Colombia lands at 11:00 PM in MYT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +13h gap: Colombia and MYT have no overlap inside a normal 9-to-5 day, so real-time meetings need an early-morning or late-evening slot on one side. 9:00 AM in MYT is 10:00 PM in Colombia.
Coordinating a Colombia-based team with MYT contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM COT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +13h gap is not.
With a +13h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Colombia takes the early slot, the next week MYT does.
