Iligan City councilors here are supporting the resolution endorsed by fellow legislator Councilor Michelle Sweet urging all local and national offices to base their watches on Philippine Standard Time (PST). This is in consonance with the campaign of the Department of Science and Technology (Dost) called "Juan" Time that aims to synchronize the time in the country.
The move also hopes to erase the negative comment that Filipinos do not come on time in appointments/events, which is also known as Filipino Time.
Sweet observed that radio stations have different time and even different departments of City Hall and other establishments.
PST is the official time from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration or Pagasa since 1978 in accordance with a law. (PR)"
