Around 185,641 people live in Jiwaka, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Clocks in Jiwaka stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +10 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Papua New Guinea.
