Daylight Saving Time Around the World 1989
More About Daylight Saving Time
Daylight saving time is also called summer time or daylight savings time. When DST is not observed, it is called standard time, normal time or winter time.
This list displays a brief (but not complete) overview over which countries and territories that observed DST during 1989.
Current country/territory names, rather than historic country names are displayed, so the list could contain countries that did not exist at the time.
Detailed information is available for the first half of 1989 and the second half of 1989.
