Sunrise today lands at 06:22 and sunset at 06:43 local time, giving 12h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (8.61, -82.61) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Bongo.
The zone identifier America/Panama is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Panama keeps pointing at Panama time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
