Washington, D.C. is 12 hours behind Kuala Lumpur

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

With 12 hours between them, Kuala Lumpur and Washington, D.C. have no overlap during standard business hours — by the time one team logs on, the other has logged off. The usual fix is an early start for Washington, D.C. or a late finish for Kuala Lumpur — pick whichever team has more flexibility. A quick caveat — Washington, D.C.'s clocks move for daylight saving and Kuala Lumpur's don't, so the times here are right for only part of the year.
