Power Hour

Mamayang madaling araw, at  2 a.m. on Nov. 7, 2010, groggy Americans will turn their clocks back one hour, marking the end of Daylight Saving Time (DST).

Taong 1986 - 2006 ang DST ay magsisimula first Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October. But starting in 2007, it is observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. 

 

 Bakit kailangan i-memorize ang pagdagdag at pagbawi ng isang oras? Ayon sa video na eto overly excited daw tayo during month of March. Exempted kami dito kasi sa umaga kami natutulog.

Ayon kay Wikipedia, dalawa sa naging Presidente natin gusto rin sana ipatupad ang Power Hour, este DST pala. The Philippines experimented with DST for short periods during the presidencies of Corazon Aquino (1986 to 1992) and Fidel Ramos (1992 to 1998). DST was primarily intended to help deal with the country's energy crisis by minimizing the number of hours during which electric lighting was needed. On April 2006, the Philippine Department of Trade and Industry again proposed that DST be implemented to help deal with rising oil prices.

Hindi pa isinasa-batas ang DST sa Pilipinas ganun pa man ang aming shedule next week ay mababago na dahil sa DST. Sa Lunes itatanong ko sa Team Lead  (TL) ko bakit sa halip na mas maaga ang pasok ay lalong pinagabi.
