claims the change willcause disruption to the life-style ofpeople living in the far east and farwest of Indonesia. Saying 200million Indonesians will beaffected by the change, Kallabranded the time-change plan asillogical and unheard of in anynation covering the widelongitudinal area such as thatoccupied by Indonesia.Kalla said China's use ofa single-time zone was a politicaldecision adopted by theCommunist Party in 1949.Ridiculing arguments of“greater economic productivity”resulting from a single time zone,Kalla points to the U.S.A. withnine time zones and Australia withthree time zones, where he saysproductivity and multiple timezones have no linkage.The Sunlight FactorLargely ignored in thecurrent debate over changingtime zones in Indonesia is the factthat Indonesia, as an archipelagicnation stretched alongthe equator, sees an averageday's sunlight vary littlethroughout the calendar year. Forexample, Surabaya, asIndonesia's second largest city,experiences sunset and sunsettimes that vary by only 20 minutesacross the course of a year.As shown on the chartprovided by Balidiscovery.com, asingle time zone would limit theamount of "waking" or "working"daylight hours available to localresidents and, by extension,tourist visitors, In a simulation fora specific day in March 2012, thenew time zone would see peoplein North Sumatra experience theirsunrise and sunset one hour laterat 7:32 am and 7:37 pm,respectively. This compares withIndonesia's far east, Jayapura, inPapua, where for the same date inMarch the sunrise and sunsetwould occur one hour earlier at4:42 am and 4:40 pm,respectively.The current proposalmandate that all areas ofIndonesia follow a single timezone of GMT + 8. Under thisscheme, there would be nochange in Bali's current timezone.
