About the time in Sarawak
Around 2,907,500 people live in Sarawak, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sarawak sits at latitude 2.50, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 11m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:23 and sunset at 06:35 local time, giving 12h 11m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (2.50, 113.50) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sarawak.
