Central Region runs on Africa/Blantyre, which puts the city UTC +2 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 05:55 and sunset at 05:39 local time, giving 11h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-13.50, 34.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Central Region.
