About the time in San Jose
San Jose sits at latitude 9.95, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 23m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:34 and sunset at 05:57 local time, giving 12h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (9.95, 124.14) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Jose.
The zone identifier Asia/Manila is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Manila keeps pointing at Manila time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
