About BDST (Bangladesh Standard Time)
Bangladesh Standard Time (BDST) is the single time zone used across Bangladesh, fixed at UTC+06:00 all year. Bangladesh has not observed daylight saving time since a short-lived experiment in 2009, so the gap between Bangladesh and every other zone is constant. Dhaka, the capital, is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. Because the country sits close to the middle of the UTC+06:00 band, solar noon is near 12:00 for most of the year. BDST is listed separately from British Summer Time, which shares the BST abbreviation but is UTC+01:00.
About MYT (Malaysia Time)
Malaysia Time (MYT) is used throughout Malaysia, including Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia (Sabah and Sarawak on Borneo). MYT does not observe daylight saving time. Malaysia shares the same offset as China, Singapore, and the Philippines.
