About the time in Vientiane Prefecture
Vientiane Prefecture sits at latitude 18.08, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 40m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:52 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (18.08, 102.67) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Vientiane Prefecture.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Vientiane Prefecture day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 02:00–10:00 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.
