About the time in Sontou
Clocks in Sontou stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +1 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Benin.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Sontou day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:40 and sunset at 07:03 local time, giving 12h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (9.72, 2.85) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sontou.
