Pyongyang, August 7 (KCNA) -- The DPRK decided to fix the standard time on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Korea's liberation.
A decree of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK published on Wednesday said:
It was on August 15 when President Kim Il Sung, benefactor of national resurrection and peerless patriot, crushed the brigandish Japanese imperialists by making long journeys of anti-Japanese bloody battles and liberated Korea. It was the day of historical significance as it put an end to the history of national sufferings and brought about a radical turn in carving out the destiny of the country and its people.
The wicked Japanese imperialists committed such unpardonable crimes as depriving Korea of even its standard time while mercilessly trampling down its land with 5 000 year-long history and culture and pursuing the unheard-of policy of obliterating the Korean nation.
It is the firm faith and will of the DPRK's service personnel and people to force the Japanese imperialists to pay for the monstrous crimes committed by them for a century, firmly defend the national sovereignty and demonstrate for eternity the dignity and might of the great Paektusan nation shining with the immortal august names of Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il.
The Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK makes the following decision reflecting the unshakable faith and will of the service personnel and people on the 70th anniversary of Korea's liberation:
Firstly, the time at 127 degrees 30 minutes east longitude or 30 minutes later than the present one shall be fixed as the standard time of the DPRK and called Pyongyang time.
Secondly, Pyongyang time shall be applied from Aug. 15, Juche 104 (2015).
Thirdly, the DPRK Cabinet and relevant organs shall take practical steps to carry out this decree. -0-

in winter australia has 3 timezones (in summer it goes up to 5 because STATES RIGHTS :bahgawd:

) - gmt +10 in the east, gmt +8 in the west, and so obviously the logical thing to do is for the middle bit to be on gmt +9.5 so that it's slightly closer to the part that almost matters while still being different to literally everywhere in the world

PHP's date() function has a format specifier 'B' which returns the Swatch Internet Time notation for a given time stamp.[2]
