Why people convert Ho Chi Minh to Argentina time

Scheduling a call from Ho Chi Minh to Argentina: a 10:00 AM start in Ho Chi Minh lands at 12:00 AM in Argentina, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a -10h gap: Ho Chi Minh and Argentina 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 Argentina is 11:00 PM in Ho Chi Minh.
Coordinating a Ho Chi Minh-based team with Argentina contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.
