Why people convert Kuala Lumpur to Santiago time

Scheduling a call from Kuala Lumpur to Santiago: a 10:00 AM start in Kuala Lumpur lands at 11:00 PM in Santiago the previous day, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a -11h gap: Kuala Lumpur and Santiago 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 Santiago is 10:00 PM in Kuala Lumpur.
Coordinating a Kuala Lumpur-based team with Santiago 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 MYT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a -11h gap is not.
With a -11h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Kuala Lumpur takes the early slot, the next week Santiago does.
Santiago: Clocks fall back on Sun, Apr 4, 2027. Any meeting series spanning that date will shift by an hour in local time.
