Atlanta is 12 hours behind Kuala Lumpur

There is no standard 8-to-6 overlap. Someone joins early or late.

Atlanta is 12 hours behind Kuala Lumpur, which is far enough that a normal 9-to-5 in one city never reaches the other's working hours. One practical option: Atlanta dials in early while it's still late afternoon or evening in Kuala Lumpur. Finally, Atlanta observes daylight saving and Kuala Lumpur doesn't, so this window shifts by an hour for part of the year — recheck it each spring and autumn.
