Abbreviation disambiguation

Bangladesh Time is UTC+6. It is sometimes written locally as BST (Bangladesh Standard Time), which collides with British Summer Time — check the city or UTC offset to be sure which is meant.

On Clockjumper, CET refers to Central European Time, UTC+1 — the winter time across most of continental Western and Central Europe. From the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October the same countries move to CEST (UTC+2).
