Introduction to Time Zones

Time zones are regions of the Earth that have the same standard time. The concept was established to help synchronize activities across different areas. Here are some key points:

UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time.
Time zones are usually expressed as an offset from UTC, e.g., UTC+8 for the Philippines.
There are 24 main time zones across the globe.

Major cities like Manila and Cebu follow PST.
