Kaohsiung does not observe daylight saving time — it stays at UTC+8 all year round.
Kaohsiung is 12h 0min ahead of New York and does not observe daylight saving time, so this difference stays constant all year round — unlike London, which changes clocks twice a year. Taiwan is an island nation, so every city we track there shares Kaohsiung's single time zone.
