About the time in Rote
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Rote day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 01:00–09:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Rote follows the civil time used across its region of Indonesia; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 05:51 and sunset at 05:41 local time, giving 11h 50m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-9.87, 124.27) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rote.
